Orthetrum taeniolatum[2] is an Asian freshwater dragonfly species. The common name for this species is small skimmer.[3][4] Its range of distribution spreads from eastern Europe to China, and the species itself is locally common throughout the range.[1][5][6][3][4]
It is a medium sized dragonfly with brown capped eyes, greenish brown thorax and bluish abdomen. Female lacks the powder blue pruinescence. It prefers medium to slow-flowing streams in the dry zones and hot plains. Adults are common around open rocky and sandy beds of the streams.[7][8]
