Priscagrion is a genus of flatwings in the damselfly order Odonata. There are at least two described species in Priscagrion.[1][2][3][4]

As a result of molecular phylogenetic studies by Dijkstra et al. in 2013, the genus Priscagrion is considered "incertae sedis", without an assigned family but within the superfamily Calopterygoidea.[2][4]

Species

These two species belong to the genus Priscagrion:[4]

  • Priscagrion kiautai Zhou & Wilson, 2001
  • Priscagrion pinheyi Zhou & Wilson, 2001
