Notes on taxonomy
Jules Rambur originally described this genus as Ictinus in 1842.[8] However, at the time there already existed a genus of beetle also named Ictinus described by François Laporte in 1834.[9] In 1934, John Cowley, an English entomologist, renamed this species to Ictinogomphus in deference to Rambur's original name. Cowley is now regarded as the authority, and this genus can be formally written as: Ictinogomphus Cowley, 1934.[3]
The Australian Faunal Directory considers the genus Ictinogomphus to belong to the family Lindeniidae.[3] The World Odonata List at Slater Museum of Natural History, University of Puget Sound considers the genus Ictinogomphus to belong to the family Gomphidae.[2]
