Nososticta is a genus of damselfly in the family Platycnemididae.[2] Nososticta damselflies are found across a wide range from Africa, through Indonesia to Australia. They are commonly known as Threadtails.[3]
Etymology
[edit]The genus name Nososticta combines the Greek νόσος (nosos, "disease") with στικτός (stiktos, "spotted" or "marked"). The suffix -sticta is commonly used in names of taxa related to Protoneura and the subfamily Isostictinae.[4]
