Libellago indica

Libellago indica, southern heliodor is a species of damselfly in the family Chlorocyphidae. It is found only in South India. It breeds in hill streams and rivers. Fraser described this damselfly in 1928 as a subspecies of Libellago lineata. Most authors have followed Fraser’s original view for a long time, although Lieftinck considered L. indica as a good species (Lieftinck, 1940,p. 88; 1955, p. 68; 1971,p. 206). Recently De Fonseka 2000, Hämäläinen 2002 and World Odonata List listed L. indica as a good species.
