  • Rapids Clubtail, Phanogomphus Quadricolor
    Natural Heritage Rapids Clubtail & Endangered Species Phanogomphus quadricolor Program State Status: Endangered www.mass.gov/nhesp Federal Status: None Massachusetts Division of Fisheries & Wildlife DESCRIPTION: The Rapids Clubtail (Phanogomphus quadricolor) is a large, slender insect belonging to the order Odonata, suborder Anisoptera (the dragonflies). The Rapids Clubtail is a member of the Gomphidae family (the clubtails), one of the most diverse families of dragonflies in North America with nearly 100 species. Clubtails are unique among the dragonflies in having eyes that are separated from each other. These insects, as their name implies, have a lateral swelling near the end of the abdomen, giving the abdomen a “club-like” appearance. The Rapids Clubtail belongs to the genus Phanogomphus. These clubtails are characterized by their dull coloring of grays, greens, browns and blacks, and by their small “club.” Rapids Clubtails have blue- Photo © Blair Nikula green eyes. The legs are black. The sides of the thorax (section behind the head) are marked with yellow to gray-green dorsal and lateral stripes. The abdomen problems. Although the pattern is the same, the pale (section behind the thorax) is black.
