20 Small ponds were constructed at the Woodwalton Fen National Nature Reserve in 1961 and elsewhere in the reserve in 1974 and 1977. The twenty ponds were allowed to develop naturally except for scrub control on their perimeters. In the other (Heathfield) ponds emergent plants were planted immediately after their construction. The ponds were visited near noon on fine days as often as possible and the numbers of adult and teneral dragonflies were recorded. Unit of abundance = IndCountInt, Unit of biomass = NA. Brachytron pretense records are based on lavar skins counts.Citation(s)
