Yes, damselfly nymphs are carnivorous, feeding on mosquito larvae, flies, and various insects with labium similar to those of the dragonfly nymph. The gills of damselfly nymphs are large and external, resembling three fins at the end of the abdomen. After molting several times, the winged adult emerges and eats flies, mosquitoes, and other small insects. Some of the larger tropical species are known to feed on Spiders by hovering near the web and plucking the spider from its nest.
