After viewing images of the two I'm inclined to stick to the amaryllis!

Marl's suggestion of atropha is good too. I went for amaryllis because of the lack of color on the abdomen. You can see both species and other similar in the following link, to make up your own mind :) http://www.asia-dragonfly.net/globalResults.php?Format=PL_HTML&Distrib=MY,&Genus=vestalis&offset=0 Dave

That's a lovely damselfly. Nice green on the thorax.
