Unicorn Hunter (1/5)

Odonata: Gomphidae

Austrogomphus cornutus  

The distinctive pattern on the thorax and the unique occiput horn identify this dragonfly as a Unicorn Hunter.

The male Unicorn Hunter has a swollen occiput forming a blunt triangular horn, hence the name Unicorn Hunter.

The "horn" can be seen in the below images as the yellow triangle between the large compound eyes of the dragonfly.
