Pseudocordulia
Pseudocordulia is the only genus of dragonflies in the family, Pseudocorduliidae. They are medium-sized, bronze-black dragonflies with clear wings, and are endemic to tropical north-eastern Australia.
Recent taxonomic history
Until about 2013, Pseudocordulia was considered to be the only genus in the family Pseudocorduliidae. Research and taxonomic updates led to Pseudocorduliidae no longer being recognised as a family, and the genus Pseudocordulia being placed incertae sedis within the superfamily Libelluloidea. Its precise placement remained uncertain for some years.In 2025, molecular and morphological analyses helped to resolve this uncertainty. These studies supported Pseudocorduliidae as a distinct family within Libelluloidea.
