Anisoptera

Anisoptera (a vocabulis Graecis ἄνισος 'inaequalis' + πτερόν 'ala'Quia ala posterior alae anteriori latior est.) sunt unus ex binis subordinibus insectorum ordinis Odonatorum. Zygopteris, insectis alius ordinis Odonatorum, similes sunt, quamquam maiora, corporibus gravioribus, et multae species requiescentes alas procul a corpore tollunt, zygopteris enim dissimilia, quae alas iuxta corpus plicare solent.

Veterrima fossilia Protodonata repraesentant, ex Carbonifero superiori, abhinc annorum 326 million in Europa, qui grex Meganeuropsim permianam comprehendit, maximum insectum quod umquam vixit, ex Permiano ineunte, cui erat latitudo alarum circiter 750 millimetra.. 

Distributio et diversitas
