The Fairy Dragonfly (French: La Fée Libellule ou le Lac enchanté) was a 1908 French short silent film by Georges Méliès. It was sold by Méliès's Star Film Company and is numbered 1372–1385 in its catalogues.[1]

Little information is extant for this film, which is presumed lost. A few film stills survive, which have often been mistakenly attributed to an earlier Méliès film, The Kingdom of the Fairies.[1] No English-language release is known for this film,[1] but the translated title The Fairy Dragonfly has been used in film reference.[2]
