Protosticta rozendalorum is a dragonfly or damselfly in the family Platystictidae (order Odonata), recorded as Critically Endangered and tied to Indonesia.
The dragonfly or damselfly
Dragonflies and damselflies are aerial predators as adults and aquatic predators as nymphs. Both stages need unpolluted water.
An insect has six legs and, in winged forms, one or two pairs of wings. Most named species in this catalog are known from a type series and a locality, not from a popular field guide.
