The Red Dragonfly[nb 1] is a bug in the Animal Crossing series that has appeared in every game to date.
In the games that the Red Dragonfly appears in, it is the most common bug that the player can encounter, and can be found flying. In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, it can be caught during fall.

Donating to the museum
In Animal Crossing
In Wild World
The Red Dragonfly can be found flying around the second insect room in the museum.
In City Folk
The Red Dragonfly can be seen in the lower tier of the insect exhibition, flying around the small pool of water in the exhibit closest to the entrance.
In New Leaf
Upon being donated, the Red Dragonfly can be found in the first room of the bug exhibit, flying around the pond and occasionally resting on the fence. The exhibit has this to say about the Red Dragonfly:
In New Horizons
Once donated to the museum, the Red Dragonfly can be found flying near the waterfall in the upper section of the main bug exhibit with the Darner Dragonfly and the Damselfly.

Real-world information
The red dragonfly featured in Animal Crossing is most likely a male specimen of Sympetrum flaveolum, colloquially known as the yellow-winged darter. The yelllow-winged darter can grow to be 32-37 mm long, and can be found through the southern half of Great Britain (though not exactly established there), parts of southern Europe, and in central and northern China. Only the males sport the bright red coloration seen in Animal Crossing — females are a golden brown. The species can breed only with stagnant water, such as in peat bogs and still river backwaters. It can be difficult to tell apart the yellow-winged darter from other dragonflies, especially in female specimens.
Trivia
- The Red Dragonfly's catch quote in New Horizons references tabletop role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons. In the game, Red Dragons are enemies that players can face, and in combat, players roll initiative to determine the order of turns.
