Sciotropis is a genus of damselflies. There are at least two described species in Sciotropis.
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.
Species
These two species belong to the genus Sciotropis:
- Sciotropis cyclanthorum Rácenis, 1959
- Sciotropis lattkei De Marmels, 1994
