Description

Heliocypha biseriata is a colorful Bornean endemic damselfly belongs to the family Chlorocyphidae. Its greatest decoration is on its hindwings with extensive parallel windows shot with iridescent purple and green (Chung et al., 2013). This species can be found at forest streams in the lowlands up to over 1,000m a.s.l. Most records are from mixed dipterocarp forests, some of the populations occur in exposed forests that have been heavily disturbed by logging or local agricultural activities, and sometimes in the second-growth forests (Dow, 2019).
