Abstract
ABSTRACT Lestes quadristriatus is redescribed based on type specimens as well as thirteen males and nine females collected from two locations in the Brazilian savannah: Uberaba and Corinto, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The species is characterized by distinctive cerci featuring a black lobe and a spined medial portion, along with a genital ligula that has four transverse ridges, the anterior of which is the largest. Lestes quadristriatus also exhibits a bicolored pterostigma, which is rare among its congeners. Finally, we present color plates of both males and females, along with photographs of live individuals.
