*Genus Austroaeschna , Subgenus Montiaeschna Theischinger, 2012

Of the two very similar mainland species, A. atrata seems to be restricted to the alpine region, whereas A. subapicalis may reach north into Queensland and in the south certainly reaches west to the Grampians. The two Tasmanian species can be identified based on morphology only (Theischinger 2002, 2012).
