They are commonly known as hunters. The three species of ''Austroepigomphus'' are found on the eastern and northern areas of the Australian continent. Taxonomy In 1951, F.C. Fraser described the genus ''Austroepigomphus'' and assigned ''Onychogomphus praeruptus'' Selys, 1857, by original designation, as the type specimen. In 1991, Tony Watson sunk the name ''Austroepigomphus'' to subgenus status. Recent research has seen the name ''Austroepigomphus'' raised to genus level once again. ''Austroepigomphus'' may also be considered to have two subgenera: ''Austroepigomphus'', with a single species, and ''Xerogomphus'', with two species. Species The genus ''Austroepigomphus'' includes three species: * '' Austroepigomphus praeruptus'' - twinspot hunter * '' Austroepigomphus gordoni'' - wester ...
