Zygonyx ida (Order: ODONATA) – A museum-quality torrent hawk dragonfly specimen in A1 condition, expertly dry-preserved and spread for collectors, educators, and natural history enthusiasts.
Zygonyx ida is a powerful and fast-flying torrent hawk dragonfly within the family Libellulidae, distributed across South and Southeast Asia. The genus Zygonyx — the torrent hawks — is specialised for life along fast-flowing rivers and waterfalls, where these strong, agile fliers patrol turbulent water with remarkable precision and speed. Named after Ida, a figure from classical mythology, Zygonyx ida is a robust and handsomely marked species with the elongated, powerful build characteristic of the genus, well adapted to the demanding conditions of its torrent habitat. Torrent hawks are among the more challenging and rewarding dragonflies to collect, given their preference for remote, fast-flowing waterways, lending each specimen an additional layer of field interest. In spread position, the powerful build and elegant proportions of this specialist dragonfly are displayed to excellent effect — a distinctive and characterful addition to any Odonata collection.
Perfect for entomologists, natural history collectors, educators, artists, interior designers seeking authentic Victorian cabinet aesthetics, and anyone passionate about the extraordinary diversity of the insect world.

One was slightly damaged but both are beautiful specimens. Fast shipping. Definitely recommend seller.
Perfect, thank you! Really appreciate
Beautiful specimens, had a problem with customs in my country but it wasn't that big an issue. Can't wait to buy more eventually!!
Never received my egg! Was very disappointed. Tracking said it was in customs for over 10 days… gave up and got my money back right away!
Beautiful. Thank You, I love it :-)
These are really big! Perfect specimens in perfect condition on arrival. Very pleased!
Really beautiful specimens. Perfectly spread and in perfect condition. Recommend
Fantastic specimens. Perfect and very pleased, thankyou!
This was part of a double order, same as my other review. I’m new to pinning as a hobby in my spare time. From what I can tell they’re good specimens with plenty of variety. My only gripe is that they didn’t come with ID but that wouldn’t stop me from ordering again. Hopefully ID can be added to future purchases.
As someone who’s just started pinning, I don’t know a lot. From what I can see they are good specimens with a good variety. Would definitely order again. My only gripe is that they don’t come with ID.
These were really great! Lots of variety and will be useful, thank you!
