We consider the problem of point vortices moving on the surface of a triaxial ellipsoid. Following Hally's approach, we obtain the equations of motion by constructing a conformal map from the ellipsoid into the sphere and composing with stereographic projection. We focus on the case of a pair of opposite vortices. Our approach is validated by testing a prediction by Kimura that a (infinitesimally close) vortex dipole follows the geodesic flow. Poincaré sections suggest that the global flow is non-integrable.

Keywords: Fluid Dynamics, vortex dynamics, point vortices, Riemann surfaces.
