}}Pseudagrion rubriceps,[2][1] saffron-faced blue dart,[4][5] is a species of damselfly in the family Coenagrionidae. It is found in many tropical Asian countries.[1][3]

Description and habitat

It is a medium sized damselfly with bright orange eyes, greenish below. The male is easily distinguished from all other Pseudagrion species by the brilliant reddish-orange face, from which it derives its common name. Its thorax is olive green above and azure blue on the sides. There is a narrow mid-dorsal carina and humeral stripes in black. Abdomen is blue on the sides, broadly marked with black on dorsum, up to segment 8. Segments 9 and 10 are azure blue without any marks. Anal appendages are black.[8]

Eyes, face and thorax of the female is yellowish green, marked as in the male. Color of the abdomen is similar to the male; but paler. Segments 8 and 9 are also black with fine apical blue rings. Segment 10 is pale blue.[8]

Widely distributed throughout the plains and submontane areas. It breeds in weedy streams and ponds.[4][5][6][7][8]

Subspecies

Two subspecies recognized.[9]

  • Pseudagrion rubriceps ceylonicum - Endemic to Sri Lanka
  • Pseudagrion rubriceps rubriceps - Other Asian countries.[10]
