Eusynthemis deniseae is a species of dragonfly of the family Synthemistidae, known as the Carnarvon tigertail. It is a medium-sized dragonfly with black and pale yellow markings. It inhabits streams in the vicinity of Carnarvon National Park, Queensland, Australia.
Etymology The genus name Eusynthemis combines the Greek εὖ (eu, "well") with Synthemis, an existing genus of dragonflies, referring to a more developed form compared with other members of Synthemis.
In 1977, Günther Theischinger named this species deniseae, an eponym honouring his daughter Denise.
