This species is found in the grassland biome, where its natural habitat is grassy verges of ponds and slow-flowing streams.
This bluet is 22–27 mm long, with a wingspan of 30–32 mm. The thorax is greenish blue with black dorsal and antehumeral stripes. The upper abdomen is mainly black; segments eight and nine are bright blue and segment ten is black.
