This species has wings with brown tips, but female samples often only have basal spots on the wings. Forewings can have a yellowish shadow. For the hind wings the red-yellow color is somewhat more widespread, diffuse anteriorly and not very sharp up to the 1st antenodal transverse artery and on or a little over the transverse artery of the submedian space [2]

Observation of Erythrodiplax unimaculata have been documented in Brazil,[2][5] Colombia[6] and Peru.[4] Observations aggregated in the Global Biodiversity Information Facility suggest a more wide spread range in the northern have of South America.[3]
