Real-world information
Petalura ingentissima, commonly known as the giant petaltail, is the largest dragonfly species in the world, its wingspan measuring 160 mm. Its range is restricted to the northern parts of Queensland, Australia, and unlike other species, the larva live in underground burrows - from which they prey upon passing insects. Although the genus to which the giant petaltail belongs dates back to the Jurassic period, its members have not evolved substantially, a fact able to be observed by examining the fossils that have been discovered.
