Flint's Knobtail

In adult males, the head is reddish-brown, with a variety of pale olive-green markings on the labrum, postclypeus, mandibles, and frons. The prothorax is pale reddish-brown with yellow spotting on the middle lobe and a dark brown hind lobe. The pterothorax is reddish-brown dorsally and light-colored ventrally, with a number of yellow stripes. The abdomen is dark brown above and has ten segments. The terminal appendages are dark brown. The wings have black veins and reddish-brown pterostigma. In the specimens of the type series, the abdominal length is 39–42.5 mm and the hind-wing length is 32–35 mm.

Epigomphus flinti is endemic to Mexico and is known only from its type locality in Oaxaca. It is thought to inhabit rocky streams like other members of its genus and seems to live in cloud forest. The species is classified as being endangered by the IUCN. There is very little information available on the species' population or habitat, but the cloud forests it lives in are amongst the rarest habitats in the country and face ongoing deforestation.
