Myristica bambootail

It is a medium-sized damselfly with black-capped blue eyes. Its thorax is black, marked with a narrow ante-humeral azure blue stripe. Lateral side is blue with a moderately broad black stripe over the postero-lateral suture. Its abdomen is black, marked with azure blue broadly on the sides of the segments 1 and 2. Segments 3 to 5 have very narrow baso-dorsal annules in blue. Apical end of segment 7 and segments 8 to 9 are blue on dorsum with very narrow annules in black. Segment 10 is blue on dorsum and black on the sides. Female is similar to the male except in the markings on the last abdominal segments. The species is closely associated with Myristica swamps and streams with good riparian forest cover. They usually found in small colonies, perching on overhanging plants.
