The Brown Hawker lays its eggs in floating vegetation and timber in ponds or slow-flowing waters. It has a brown body with yellow stripes on the side of the thorax and brown tinged wings. The brown wings make this species distinct. It can be found hunting along woodland rides some distance from water.
