Larval development of Nannopaya pygmaea Rambur (Libellulidae), an endangered dragonfly in Korea, was studied using an introduced lariat population in an artificial wetland habitat. Artificial habitat was created in a green house which imitated a small wetland in Boryeong-si, Chungcheongnam-do, Korea, where N. pygmaea inhabited. A total of 300 N. pygmaea larvae were introduced to the artificial habitat in June 2007. Larvae were recaptured five times between June 2007 and November 2008 for measurement of body length. As a result, the initial and recaptured populations (Recaptured I, II, III, IV, and V populations, respectively) contained two body size groups [initial 6.20$\pm$0.34 mm and 7.94$\pm$0.46 mm (mean$\pm$SD); Recaptured I 2.84$\pm$0.43 mm and 5.16$\pm$0.83 mm; Recaptured II 5.96$\pm$0.66 mm and 8.02$\pm$0.35 mm; Recaptured III 5.97$\pm$0.73 mm and 7.82$\pm$0.37 mm; Recaptured IV 7.04$\pm$0.93 mm and 8.52$\pm$0.39 mm; Recaptured V 5.72$\pm$0.60 mm and 7.71$\pm$0.30 mm]. Our rearing experiment evidenced that the recaptured I-V populations are the offspring of the initial population and the offspring grew approximately 3 mm at 470 degree days. It was also estimated that N. pygmaea larvae need approximately 100 degree days to grow 0.7 mm in body length.

A flow visualization has been conducted to investigate unsteady flight characteristics of a model of dragonfly. The mechanism of lift generation by flapping wings is analyzed using smoke-wire and high speed camera. The experimental results of flow visualization show a discernible sequential dynamics that three mechanisms and high incidence angle of the wings are responsible for the lift generation. The leading edge vortex by the rapid acceleration of leading edge of the wing during initial stage of stroke causes a strong lift enhancement. Delayed stall during the stroke, fast supination and pronation of the wing near the end of each stroke are also responsible for the lift generation.

The present paper is a part of the study on the immature stages of genus Tipula in Korea. It described and illustrated egg, each larval stage and pupa of Tipula nova. It is the first to deal the all immature stages of the species in Korea. Their taxonomic remarks and habitats are also given.

The flow visualization is conducted in order to investigate an unsteady flight characteristic of a model dragonfly. The flapping wings are analyzed using smoke-wire and high speed camera. The results of this experiment show that three mechanisms and high incidence angle of the wings are responsible for the lift. The leading edge vortex, which is induced by the rapid acceleration of the wing at the beginning of a stroke, causes the lift enhancement. The delayed stall during the stroke and the fast supination and pronation of the wing near the end of each stroke are also responsible for the lift generation.
