Aciagrion occidentale, green striped slender dartlet, is a species of damselfly in the family Coenagrionidae. It is found in India, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Thailand.

It is a long slender damselfly with a black spot in blue on the last segment of the abdomen. Flies close to the ground; found in shrub dominated wetlands. In spite of its delicate build, it enjoys migration by rising high in the air and takes advantage of its lightweight in air currents.
