damselfly in the family
Megapodagrionidae,[3]
commonly known as an alpine flatwing.[4]
It is
endemic to alpine areas of Victoria and New South Wales, where it inhabits bogs and seepages.[5]
Griseargiolestes intermedius is a medium-sized damselfly, black-green metallic in colour with pale markings; adults are slightly
