Leptocnemis
Platycnemididae is a family of damselflies in the superfamily Coenagrionoidea. The family contains more than 400 species distributed throughout the Old World, particularly in Africa, Asia and the western Pacific.
Many species have broadened tibiae and are commonly known as white-legged damselflies, although this feature is absent in some groups.
