    Action: changed name from "Unknown" to "Damselfly sp. "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "Though this is a simple common name change, in general "dragonflies" are a group unable to fold their wings over their body when perched. "Damselflies" do fold their wings, and this photo shows an animal with wings folded over the body."
