Enallagma is a genus of damselflies in the family Coenagrionidae commonly known as bluets. Bluets can be distinguished from the similar vivid dancer by wing position; at rest, bluets' wings hang down on either side of their body, while vivid dancers hold their wings above their body. Bluets also have shorter leg spines.
