摘要：

On the basis of a very well-preserved new specimen, we redescribe the Early Cretaceous genus and species Mesocordulia boreala, currently attributed to the Cretaceous subfamily Mesocorduliinae of Araripelibellulidae. We refine key characteristics of wing venation, which allow us to exclude this species from the Araripelibellulidae and elevate the Mesocorduliinae to the family rank as Mesocorduliidae. The relationships of this fossil are clarified. As the genus name Mesocordulia is preoccupied, we propose a replacement name, Guocordulia.
