Choristhemis flavoterminata

Choristhemis flavoterminata, the yellow-tipped tigertail, is a species of dragonfly from the family Synthemistidae found in New South Wales and Queensland, Australia.

[4][5] Yellow-tipped tigertails inhabit streams and rivers and can be found amongst mud and gravel.

The abdomen consists of a small quantity of hair, measures 12.1 mm, and is relatively thin.

Once mature, yellow-tipped tigertail larvae become predators, feeding on smaller bugs.

[8] Yellow-tipped tigertails are believed to fake death when frightened by folding their legs across their bodies until they no longer feel threatened, at which point they fly away.
