Prince Baskettail (Epitheca princeps) is a larger species of baskettail, with a more elongate body than the smaller members of the genus, and usually with conspicuous dark wing markings. This emerald breeds in a wide variety of habitats, including lakes, ponds, and slower sections of creeks and rivers (Paulson, 2011). This species is considered to be uncommon in Maryland (Richard Orr's The Dragonflies and Damselflies of Maryland and the District of Columbia), but occurs statewide.
