This blue-eyed beauty is typically found on fast-flowing streams. It is small in size and easy to overlook, but the bright blue eyes are easily spotted. I did see it in India once on a small cement water tank in a game park. I have no photos of females. I have seen it right before monsoon and through November. It is regionally widespread in Vietnam, Thailand, and Malaysia.
