La temp\u00e9rature varie entre 25\u00b0C la nuit et 37 \u00b0C le jour.<br>En for\u00eat, les pistes \u00e9taient parfois difficilement praticables (en raison de pluies inattendues \u00e0 cette p\u00e9riode) avec des flaques profondes qui attiraient les Libellulidae, qui pour certains viennent maturer en for\u00eat, attendant la saison des pluies pour se reproduire.<br>Nous avons tent\u00e9 de prospecter une large vari\u00e9t\u00e9 de milieux au fur et \u00e0 mesure de notre progression, sans n\u00e9gliger les opportunit\u00e9s qui se pr\u00e9sentaient sur les bas-c\u00f4t\u00e9s de la route, ruisseaux ou mares temporaires.<br>Nous avons pass\u00e9 beaucoup de temps sur les pistes foresti\u00e8res (anciens chemins de d\u00e9bardage), en nous enfon\u00e7ant \u00e0 la recherche des ruisseaux et petites rivi\u00e8res qui les traversent ou les longent.<br>Bien s\u00fbr, nous avons explor\u00e9 des mares et des \u00e9tangs en milieux forestiers et au hasard des routes, dans des zones ouvertes. Des sites improvis\u00e9s, je pense \u00e0 une petite mare g\u00e9n\u00e9r\u00e9e par un ruisseau qui passe sous une route nationale, se sont r\u00e9v\u00e9l\u00e9s extraordinairement riches. Une mare exceptionnelle nous a offert Urothemis venata et de nombreuses autres esp\u00e8ces, une rivi\u00e8re toute ordinaire nous a donn\u00e9 deux nouvelles esp\u00e8ces pour le Ghana (signal\u00e9es par \u00ab\u00a0*\u00a0\u00bb) ; les d\u00e9couvertes et les surprises s&rsquo;offrent au d\u00e9tour de la route, de la piste ou du sentier\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div
