*Genus Pseudagrion Selys, 1876 :

The known larvae of the Australian Pseudagrion species can be confidently distinguished from each other by the combination of morphological characters and distributions. However, only P. aureofrons , P. microcephalum and P. ignifer from eastern Australia south of about latitude Rockhampton can be confidently identified because P. cingillum and P. jedda coexist in the same areas as P. aureofrons , P. ignifer , P. microcephalum and P. lucifer in northern Australia ( Theischinger & Endersby 2009) and their as yet undescribed larvae may be indistinguishable from one or two of them.
