The Trumpet Tail (Acisoma panorpoides), also known as the Asian Pintail or Grizzled Pintail, is a small, distinctive dragonfly species recognised for its unique body shape.

Unique Abdomen: Its most striking feature is its “trumpet” or “pintail” shape—the abdomen is broad and bulging at the base (segments 1–5) and tapers abruptly to a very slender tip (segments 6–10)
