     Damselflies:
     
     Damselflies are similar to dragonflies, but differ in that the wings of most damselflies are held along, and parallel to, the body when at rest.
     Also, the hindwing of the damselfly is essentially similar to the forewing, while the hindwing of the dragonfly broadens near the base.
     Damselflies are usually smaller than dragonflies and weaker fliers in comparison, and their eyes are separated.
