*Genus Cordulephya Selys, 1870

Cordulephya larvae identified from north of the Paluma-Eungella gap can be confirmed by distribution as C. bidens . C. pygmaea is probably the only species in Queensland south of the Paluma-Eungella gap ( Theischinger 2007a). C. pygmaea , C. divergens and C. montana may coexist in south-eastern Australia and distinguishing C. pygmaea from C. divergens / montana from there is difficult and often doubtful. Separating larvae of C. divergens and C. montana is not possible at present.
