Thank you very much Lauren, I'll change that..
Beautiful picture! These are actually Damselflies. The Odonates are divided into two suborders: the Epiprocta (Anisoptera) for the dragonflies and Zygoptera for the damselflies. The Damselflies might be one of the oldest phylogenetically unchanged groups. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odonata.
