Cordulephyidae is a small family of dragonflies occurring in Africa and Australia.[3][4] Members of Cordulephyidae can be small to tiny, black and yellow dragonflies.[5]

The family Cordulephyidae is not recognised in the World Odonata List at the Slater Museum of Natural History, but rather its species are considered to be part of the Synthemistidae family.[6]

Genera

The family includes the following genera:

Cordulephya Selys, 1870
Neophya Selys, 1881

gollark: Happily, the PinePhone seems pretty great for repairability and runs Linux, so I hope it will be possible for me to get one.

gollark: My *old* phone had a removable plastic back panel so you could swap the battery. My new one is metal backed and I don't know if you can access the battery or replace the screen at all.

gollark: It annoys me that phones are significantly harder to repair than they have to be.

gollark: Ideally a Nokia-durability one, but to be fair that's probably not practical with smartphones.

gollark: Plastic is superior.
