The horned A ustralian burrowing mayfly genus J appa H arker ( L eptophlebiidae) is revised based on adult and larval material collected throughout A ustralia. Five named species [ J . campbelli B ae & F inlay, J . edmundsi S kedros & P olhemus, J . furcifera ( E aton), J . serrata S kedros & P olhemus and J. strigata (Eaton 1871) (= J. bicornis Ulmer 1916; = J . kutera Harker 1954, syn. n.)] are recognised, and two new species [ J . harkerae n. sp. and J . suteri n. sp.] are described. Descriptions, diagnoses, line‐drawings and images of key characters, distributional information, taxonomic remarks and keys to adults and larvae are provided. The species J appa tristis Harker 1954 is transferred to the genus Tillyardophlebia D ean.
