Distribution
South and Southeast Asia : India , Indonesia , China , Korea, Malaysia , Nepal , Papua New Guinea , Thailand , Taiwan , Japan , Philippines [2] [5] . Findings from Australia were later described as a separate species of Nannophya paulsoni Theischinger, 2003 [6] [7] .
Description
One of the smallest dragonfly species in the world: body length 15 mm, wingspan 20 mm [8] [9] . Males with a bright red belly. Larvae are greenish-brown, about 1 cm. Females are brown, with yellow and black marks on the abdomen. Most of the wings are transparent, but their base is orange-yellow. They live in swamps and shallow reservoirs [8] [9] [10] . Males have a protected area where females are waiting. The best territories that attract the largest number of females, as a rule, are occupied by males of larger sizes and younger [11] [12] [13] [14] .
Guard Status
The decline is due to environmental pollution and agricultural use of habitats [2] .
