Diplacodes nebulosa (the black-tipped percher,[1] black-tipped ground skimmer[3][4] or charcoal-winged percher) is a species of dragonfly in the family Libellulidae. It is a widely distributed species in many Asian countries.[1][5][3][4] and northern Australia.[6][7]
Diplacodes nebulosa is a very small and slender dragonfly.[8] Males have a black abdomen and black wing tips; females are yellow and black, and their wings can be hyaline, or with an orange base, or, like the male, have black tips.[9] It prefers marshes and heavily weeded ponds.[10][11]
