Genus Anax Leach, 1815 View in CoL

Morphological characters are insufficient to distinguish among species. Identifications of larvae from southern, inland and central Australia can be confirmed by distribution as A. papuensis . In northern Australia the other three species may coexist with each other ( A. georgius most restricted and morphologically distinct) and A. papuensis (Theischinger 2002; Theischinger & Endersby 2009).
