Griseargiolestes intermedius is a species of Australian damselfly in the family Argiolestidae,[3] commonly known as an alpine flatwing.[4] It is endemic to alpine areas of Victoria and New South Wales, where it inhabits bogs and seepages.[5]
Griseargiolestes intermedius is a medium-sized damselfly, black-green metallic in colour with pale markings; adults are slightly pruinescent.[4] Like other members of the family Argiolestidae, it rests with its wings outspread.[6]
Griseargiolestes intermedius appears similar to Griseargiolestes griseus, which occurs further north into New South Wales.
