    Books on the world's dragonflies & damselflies

    Scouring the web I don't seem to be able to find books providing overview of dragonflies in larger regions, let alone the whole world (as we do have for birds f.i). I see books specifically for a few countries like Costa Rica, South Africa, Sri Lanka...some for larger regions like Australia...

    Birders region Stevenage&Telford to help check on scopes?

    I noticed CeX offering 2 Nikon ed82's with zoom for sale on their website, in Stevenage and Telford, without any info. Sending them their filled form (multiple times) over the last weeks with just the basic questions (angled or straight f.i.) didn't result in any reply from them. Great service...
