Englisches Abstract

At Zoige alpine Wetland, a total of 10 species belonging to 4 families and 6 genera were recorded. Obvious melanism in Coenagrion lunulatum and feigning death behaviour in Enallagma cyathigerum were observed. A preliminary trial on avoiding behaviour of E. cyathigerum confirmed that feigning death is one of the major strategies to protect themselves. All these new findings are discussed briefly.
