Formosan Damselfly
Euphaea formosa
Euphaea formosa, the Formosan damselfly, is a species of damselfly in the family Euphaeidae. It is common in Taiwan. There is a single historical record from Xiamen, China as Euphaea compar, though this 19th-century specimen was likely mislabeled; today the species is considered endemic to Taiwan.
The IUCN conservation status of Euphaea formosa is 'least concern', with no immediate threat to the species' survival.
