That's very nice and quite clever. Are those interference colors?

Hi guys,
Thanks for the comments!

@Lou: everything natural colors as in the following thread:

Adalbert, yes, I knew they were natural, but I was asking if they are produced by natural interference (probably light reflecting off different thin layers). In other words, do the colors change with viewing angle? Are these colors produced by the act of reflection? Or put another way, is it the same wing as the other picture?

Hello Lou,
- Yes, the colors change with the viewing angle
- Yes, it is the same wing as on the other picture but a different place
Please take a look at the below wing:

Nice. Those are interference colors if they change with viewing angle, though it looks like there is some actual pigment as well.

Hello Lou,
The name of this dragonfly is rhinocypha anisoptera.
Unfortunately I haven’t found any information about the structure of its color wings
