Agriocnemis rubricauda is a species of Australian damselfly in the family Coenagrionidae,
commonly known as a red-rumped wisp.

It has been recorded from northern Australia
where it inhabits boggy seepages and swamps.




Etymology


The species name rubricauda is derived from two Latin words: ruber meaning red; and cauda meaning tail. In 1913, Robin Tillyard named this species after the brilliant red segments at the end of a male abdomen.
