Spotwinged Threadtail

Nososticta kalumburu

Description:

Beautiful blue Damselfly. The most distinguishing feature is the big, black spot on the wings.

Habitat:

Endemic to Australia - possibly endemic to the Kimberley region because it appears that that is where all sightings have been recorded. Flying about a small, flowing river on the walk at Silent Grove campground.
