Attenuated Bluet (Enallagma daeckii) is the longest species in the genus Enallagma. This aptly-named species is related to Pale Bluet (E. pallidum and Slender Bluet (E. traviatum), but is substantially longer than either. This damselfly favors dense shady brush in wooded swamps and sandy lakes (Lam, 2004) (Paulson, 2011). In Maryland, Attenuated Bluet is rare in the Piedmont region, and uncommon along the coastal plain and Eastern Shore (Richard Orr's Dragonflies and Damselflies of Maryland and the District of Columbia). It is ranked as S3 (watch list).
