Triadophlebiomorpha

Belongs within: Pandiscoidalia.

The Triadophlebiomorpha are a clade of Permian and Triassic insects of the odonate stem group, known from central Asia and Russia. Many triadophlebiomorphs have petiolate wings similar to those of modern damselflies; however, Xamenophlebia ornata is notable for its relatively broad wings with a strongly undulated hindwing.

Characters (from Nel et al. 2001): Wing with very long petiolus, with veins MP and Cu basally separated, distally fused together with AA, CuA + CuP + AA separate more distally from MP; MP distinctly curved distad of its origin at distal angle of discoidal cell; very long and oblique discoidal vein MAb; CuA without distal posterior branches.
