*Genus Nannophlebia Selys, 1878

Distributions confirm Nannophlebia larvae from New South Wales and Victoria as N. risi . Larvae from north-eastern Australia may be either N. risi or N. eludens , whereas larvae from northern and Western Australia may be either N. eludens , N. injibandi or N. mudginberri ( Theischinger 2007a; Theischinger & Endersby 2009).
