*Genus Diplacodes Kirby, 1889

Morphological differences separate either of D. haematodes and D. melanopsis from the remainder of this genus and from Nannodiplax rubra , whereas D. bipunctata morphologically pairs up with D. trivialis and D. nebulosa pairs up with N. rubra . Confident identifications can be achieved for only D. bipunctata from Western Australia, central and southern Australia and N. rubra from the Kimberley ( Theischinger 2007a; Theischinger & Endersby 2009).
