Don Dwala (Bradinopyga cornuta) Male

Family Libellulidae
They are well camouflaged as they sit amongst the rocks.
 They are found though most of south and central Africa where they frequent small rock pools which they use as breeding sites.

These dragonflies are also called Horned Rock-dwellers due to the two small, horn-like growths in front.
