Seen at the end of February in Sinharaja, Sri Lanka.

I think it must be either:
1. Gomphidia pearsoni (Rivulet Tiger)
2. Ictinogomphus rapax (Common Clubtail/Rapacious Flangetail)

The eye colour - dark grey - seems to suggest (2) but I'd appreciate a confirmation.

I've received one opinion - that it's (1) - Rivulet Tiger.

Rivulet tiger for me, largest of the clubtails. Common clubtail has, if I remember correctly, different ring markings.
