Description
Neurobasis chinensis (Common Green Metalwing) is a damselfly species with attractive iridescent green forewings in male. However, the female has only ochreous hyaline wings bearing two white pseudo-pterostigmata on each of the wings. It is normally found at clear and swift streams up to 1,300 m above sea level (Orr, 2005). This species is widespread in mainland tropical Asia and Sumatra (Orr, 2005). This species is absent from Borneo Island (Orr, 2003). The Common Green Metalwing breeds in forested and partially forested streams with grassy boarders, but it also tolerates disturbed environments (Orr & Hamalainen, 2007).
