Starting October 1st, 2009 the Vivid Dancer damselfly (Argia vivida) will be the official state insect for Nevada. I have added this bug and a few photos to BugFiles http://davesgarden.com/guides/bf/go/3053/.
Here's more information about the selection of this eye-catching critter.

Wonderful!
I've added this information to our Daily Garden History, so look for it this October!
