Anisoptera Genera
A dragonfly is a flying insect belonging to the infraorder Anisoptera below the Order (biology), order Odonata. About 3,000 extant species of dragonflies are known. Most are Tropics, tropical, with fewer species in temperate regions. Loss of wetland habitat threatens dragonfly populations around the world. Adult dragonflies are characterised by a pair of large, multifaceted, compound eyes, two pairs of strong, transparent insect wing, wings, sometimes with coloured patches, and an elongated body. Many dragonflies have brilliant iridescent or metallic colours produced by structural coloration, making them conspicuous in flight. An adult dragonfly's Arthropod eye, compound eyes have nearly 24,000 ommatidia each. Dragonflies can be mistaken for the closely related damselflies, which make up the other odonatan infraorder (Zygoptera) and are similar in body plan, though usually lighter in build; however, the wings of most dragonflies are held flat and away from the body, while damse ...

It is described based on a male specimen found in the National Zoological Collections of the Zoological Survey of India in Chennai. It was collected from the Kanyakumari Wildlife Sanctuary in Tamil Nadu. The species epithet '' podhigai'' is named after the ancient Tamil name for the Aghastyamalai were the type locality is situated. Description and habitat ''Gomphidia podhigai'' is similar to other ''Gomphidia '' species found in the hill streams of Western Ghats and Sri Lanka in general coloration and markings. However it can be easily distinguished from '' G. platyceps'' by the presence of a pair of horns in vertex, from '' G. pearsoni'' by the presence of prominent yellow markings in S10, and from '' G. kodaguensis'' by the absence of yellow markings in S8–S9.
