Males are usually bright blue and black, the females duller. Members of this genus are found in Australia, New Zealand and South Pacific islands.
Rhadinosticta is a genus of damselfly in the family Isostictidae, endemic to eastern Australia. Species of Rhadinosticta are slender, medium-sized damselflies, with a dull colouring.
Austroargiolestes is a genus of damselflies in the family Argiolestidae. They are commonly known as Flatwings; unlike many other damselflies, at rest their wings are spread out flat.
Lestoidea is a genus of damselflies in the family Lestoideidae, commonly known as bluestreaks. Its species are endemic to north-east Queensland, Australia, where they inhabit rainforest streams.
Archibasis is a genus of damselflies belonging to the family Coenagrionidae. These damselflies are generally medium-sized with bright colouring. Archibasis occurs in southern Asia, Indonesia, New Guinea and Australia.
Austroagrion is a genus of damselflies belonging to the family Coenagrionidae. Species of Austroagrion are small damselflies; males are black with blue or green markings while females are paler. Austroagrion occurs in Papua New Guinea, New Caledonia and Australia.
Caliagrion is a monotypic genus of damselflies belonging to the family Coenagrionidae. The single species of this genus, Caliagrion billinghursti, is commonly known as a large riverdamsel, and is endemic to south-eastern Australia, where it inhabits slow-flowing rivers and ponds.
