*Genus Eusynthemis Förster, 1903
Based on the morphology of the described larvae three groups can be distinguished: E. ursula ; E. brevistyla and E. virgula ; the remaining species ( Theischinger 2001a; Theischinger & Endersby 2009). It is supposed that E. ursa (larva still undescribed) will closely resemble E. ursula and that E. netta , the adults of which are quite distinct, will be recognisable when found. Firm geographical support for specific identification is not available but the specific ranges ( Theischinger 2001a; Theischinger & Endersby 2009) should be looked at when morphology based results appear doubtful.
