Euphaeidae, sometimes incorrectly named Epallagidae and commonly called gossamerwings, is a family of damselflies in the odonate superfamily Calopterygoidea.

The family is small, consisting of around 78 species living species in nine genera occurring in the Palearctic, Australasia, and Asia.

The family contains two subfamilies, Euphaeinae, encompassing all the living species and a single fossil genus, and the extinct Eodichromatinae, encompassing fossil genera from the Eocene to late Oligocene.

[4] The larvae have seven pairs of supplementary gills along the abdomen in addition to the usual three sac-like gills at the tip of the abdomen.

Adults have close veins and numerous antenodals (15-38), and most breed in forest streams.
