Bojophlebia is an extinct genus of winged insect from the Pennsylvanian period of the Czech Republic.
[1][2][3] Bojophlebia prokopi was first described in 1985 by Jarmila Kukalová-Peck, who originally described it as a large mayfly-like insect.
[3] A fossil that was described as a nymph of Bojophlebia is now considered to be a separate taxon, Carbotriplura kukalovae.
The species epithet, prokopi, is in honor of Dr. Rudolf Prokop, a friend of the author.
[4] According to Sroka et al. (2015), the family Bojophlebiidae (containing only Bojophlebia) is the sister group to the clade containing both Odonatoptera and Panephemeroptera, named Euhydropalaeoptera, within Hydropalaeoptera.
