First is the egg stage and the dragonfly will lay there eggs in, on, on near the water. The next stage would be the larval stage. This stage is when the dragonflies haven't reached adulthood yet and they can' t leave the water just yet. The next stage would be the adult stage. This is where the dragonflies can finally come out of the water and start to fly with the rest of the dragonflies. During the adult stage the dragonfly expands its thorax causing the exoskeleton to split open.
