Darner is another name for the insect commonly known as the dragonfly. One of the most common and widely known darners is the Green Darner. These insects primarily stay near streams, ponds and lakes. The male darner is known to be very aggressive and confrontational, while the females are much less aggressive. Females of this species lay their eggs in plants submerged underwater. An interesting observation of the Green Darner is bull's eye type marking on the front of it's face.
