Gets its common name (straight-edged red parasol) from the fact that the small hyaline (clear) area at the tips of wings is perpendicular (90 degrees) to the wing axis. The other similar red Neurothemis don't have this. See also http://eol.org/data_objects/27971962 AND andhttps://www.flickr.com/photos/chris_chafer/14515438291/
