The thorax has a brown shoulder stripe and the abdomen is marked with green. It has green eyes and pale legs. The female is similar to the male. The bridge (occiput) between its eyes is straight-edged or slightly notched in the middle. It tends to perch on logs and branches protruding from water near the edges of lakes.
