The Jurassic damsel-dragonfly family Paragonophlebiidae was till now monogeneric, with the sole genus Paragonophlebia and the two species P. inexpectata and P. patriciae, from the Middle Jurassic of Central Asia. Here we describe the new genus and species Sinagonophlebia yananensis Nel and Huang, from the Middle Jurassic of China, and we attribute the late Triassic and early Jurassic Diastatommites liassina (Strickland, 1840) from UK to the same family. We restore it in the genus Diastatommites Tillyard, 1925. We also describe the selenothemistid Yananthemis zaoyuanensis Nel and Huang, nov. gen., nov. sp., plus an isophlebiid gen. et sp. indet. from the same outcrop. These three damsel-dragonflies increase our knowledge on the already impressive diversity of the Odonata from the Mesozoic of China.
