The ENTC now has a new website, at www.entc.org.sz
Our logo is adapted from a painting by Phillip Dlamini, 1998, of a purple crested turaco. In traditional Swazi dress, the red feathers feature in the royal headdress, so this bird illustration is not only a symbol for wildlife conservation, but also of cultural heritage.
Detailed information on the dragonflies and damselflies (Odonata) found in Eswatini can be found here, photos can be found in the Biodiversity Explorer.
