This emerald breeds in wooded swamps, and slow streams with similar swampy sections. Robust Baskettail has been recorded from the coastal plain, on both the eastern and western shores, and up the Potomac River floodplain to Frederick County (Richard Orr's The Dragonflies and Damselflies of Maryland and the District of Columbia). This species is ranked as S1 (highly state rare) to S2 (state rare).
