Description
The dimensions of the Texas emerald are 50-54 mm in length, 32-41 mm abdomen length, and 32-37 mm in hindwing length.
Range
Somatochlora margarita is native to the two U.S. states of Texas and Louisiana. It is known to inhabit just 12 combined eastern Texas counties and western and central Louisiana parishes.

The Texas emerald is rarely seen by humans because of its tendency of flying up and perching in and or on the canopy in trees or forests.
