Abstract
Adult male and female Enallagma boreale (Zygoptera: Coenagrionidae) differ in mass at sexual maturity but not at emergence. This could be the result of differential feeding behaviour or allocation of resources. To separate these two possibilities animals were collected on six dates over the course of one flight season. Collections were made at a pond where reproduction occurs and on an adjacent hillside. Females had on average 25% more in their guts than did males. Both males and females away from the pond had more in their guts than those at the pond
