Type species: Ledracotis gunnensis Evans, by monotypy

Known species: Ledracotis gunnensis Evans 1937d : 162

Comments: This unusual stenocotine is immediately recognisable by the expansive vertex which, in the midline, is as long as the pronotum. Specimens are not common and most specimens in collections are females. In fact, the male illustrated here is the only one known. The species has been found under bark of Eucalyptus piperita in Sydney.
