Belongs within: Zygoptera.
The Calopterygoidea are a group of damselflies characterised by wings with very numerous and dense antenodal crossveins (Petrulevičius & Nel 2004). In members of the family Calopterygidae, the wings commonly lack a pterostigma, and have relatively broad, non-petiolate bases.
