Sciotropis is a genus of damselflies. There are at least two described species in Sciotropis.[1][2][3]

As a result of molecular phylogenetic studies by Dijkstra et al. in 2013, the genus Sciotropis is considered "incertae sedis", without an assigned family but within the superfamily Calopterygoidea.[1][3]

Species
