C'est un nom tr\u00e8s surprenant pour un Libellulidae et je laisse Fliedner tenter de l'expliquer\u2026<br>\"La description de Karsch de ce genre de libellulid\u00e9 ne mentionne pas du tout Macromia. Peut-\u00eatre que, comme pour le genre Macrothemis de Hagen, la dent des griffes a conduit au nom [les griffes en bas, pr\u00e8s du milieu, avec une dent distincte]. Mais il est \u00e0 noter que la seule esp\u00e8ce sur laquelle Karsch a bas\u00e9 ce taxon pr\u00e9sente une certaine similitude superficielle avec le genre Macromia : elle poss\u00e8de des ailes longues et \u00e9troites, une couleur principale sombre et brillante avec des marques jaunes (verd\u00e2tres), le thorax est vert m\u00e9tallique sombre (pour Macromia, voir Wildermuth &amp; Martens 2019 : 540-542). Quoi qu'il en soit, avec sa longueur totale d'environ 30 mm, c'est un libellulid\u00e9 plut\u00f4t petit.\"<br>Il faut savoir que les sp\u00e9cimens d\u00e9crits par Ferdinand Karsch en 1890 ont \u00e9t\u00e9 captur\u00e9s entre 1887 et 1888 (par Dr. Paul Preuss, un botaniste et explorateur allemand qui a beaucoup travaill\u00e9 au Cameroun \u00e0 cette \u00e9poque). Leur couleur, en collection depuis 2 ou 3 ans, n'avait sans doute pas grand-chose \u00e0 voir avec celle du vivant. De plus, le m\u00e2le que nous avons observ\u00e9 \u00e9tait vieux, couvert d'une pulv\u00e9rulence grise, la femelle, tr\u00e8s jeune,  plus proche de la coloration des Macromia.<br><strong>Zygoptera<\/strong>, du grec zygo, qui signifie <em>un joug<\/em> ou une <em>paire homog\u00e8ne,<\/em> et de <em>ptera<\/em> pour <em>aile<\/em>. On nomme en effet zygopt\u00e8res les demoiselles qui pr\u00e9sentent les ailes ant\u00e9rieures et post\u00e9rieures presque identiques. Or Karsch \u00e9crit : \"Von allen mir bekannten Libellulinen zeigt diese die geringste Differenzierung der Vorderfl\u00fcgel und Hinterfl\u00fcgel [De toutes les Libellulines que je connais, celle-ci pr\u00e9sente la plus faible diff\u00e9rence entre les ailes ant\u00e9rieures et les ailes post\u00e9rieures]\". <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:14px\"><strong>Dijkstra &amp; Vick, 200<\/strong>6 - <a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/publication\/242156377_Inflation_by_venation_and_the_bankruptcy_of_traditional_genera_the_case_ofNeodythemisandMicromacromia_with_keys_to_the_continental_African_species_and_the_description_of_two_newNeodythemisspecies_from\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Inflation by venation and the bankruptcy of traditional genera: the case of Neodythemis and Micromacromia, with keys to the continental African species and the description of two new Neodythemis species from the Albertine Rift (Odonata: Libellulidae)<\/a>.
