As the name suggests, this hawker has short hairs on both thorax and abdomen, unlike the other hawkers seen in Denmark. Also has a unique yellow spot on top of S1.
Males: Blue spots on the abdomen, long well-marked yellow shoulder stripes. Upper appendages slightly curved at the end. Females/immatures: Greenish spots on abdomen. Yellow shoulder stripes just small dots. One of the first hawkers to fly in the year, in Denmark. |
