Austrophya monteithorum is a species of dragonfly in the superfamily Libelluloidea,[3][4] known as the summit mystic.
[5] It is probably a small dragonfly, adults have not been seen.
[5] It is known only from larva found at the summit plateau of Thornton Peak, north-west of Cairns in tropical Queensland, Australia.
[2] Austrophya monteithorum is named after Geoff and Sybil Monteith of the Queensland Museum who collected the type material in an expedition to Thornton Peak in 1984.
