Four-spot midget  (Mortonagrion hirosei)

Description

With four apple-green spots on its black back, the four-spot midget is a very distinctive and attractive damselfly (2) (3). Females may be one of two forms, and whilst some are like the previous description, others are orange. Immature four-spot midgets are greyish but still have four pale spots visible on the back (2). Like other damselflies, the four-spot midget has a long, slender body, richly-veined wings that are held vertical at rest, and large eyes which provide exceptional vision (4).
