About Neurothemis terminata

Neurothemis terminata is a striking skimmer dragonfly within the family Libellulidae, distributed across South and Southeast Asia. A member of the boldly wing-coloured genus Neurothemis, terminata is distinguished by its rich red body and the characteristic dark wing-tip markings that give the species its name — terminata referring to the terminal dark banding at the wing apices that contrasts with the otherwise hyaline or lightly suffused wings. This combination of vivid body colouration and precise apical wing patterning makes terminata a particularly elegant and taxonomically distinctive member of the genus. In spread position, the full wing patterning and body colouration are displayed to excellent effect, making this a refined and visually interesting specimen for any Neurothemis series or Southeast Asian Odonata collection.

Perfect for entomologists, natural history collectors, educators, artists, interior designers seeking authentic Victorian cabinet aesthetics, and anyone passionate about the extraordinary diversity of the insect world.
