'''''Somatochlora viridiaenea''''' is a [[species]] of [[dragonfly]] in the [[family (taxonomy)|family]] [[Corduliidae]]. The species was described in 1858 by American [[entomologist]] [[Philip Reese Uhler]] based on a female specimen from [[Hokkaido]], [[Japan]]. It has also been recorded on [[Honshu]], in eastern [[Russia]], and in [[Zhejiang]], [[China]]. The Zhejiang specimen was described as a separate species based on a specimen from [[Lingyin Temple|Lingyin]], but a 2025 paper found that it should be treated as part of S. viridiaenea.
