Abstract

The genus Calotelea Westwood of the Nearctic region is revised. Ten species are recognized, all of them new to science, viz.: C. anthracina ♀ ♂ (New Mexico), C. atra ♀ ♂ (Florida), C. aurulenta ♀ (Texas, North Carolina), C. bicolor ♀ ♂ (Virginia), C. cincta ♂ (New Mexico), C. flava ♀ (Florida, North Carolina, Texas), C. lutea ♀ (Virginia), C. mellea ♀ ♂ (Georgia), C. nebulosa ♀ (Georgia, South Carolina), and C. pulla ♀ (Florida). The taxonomic concept of Calotelea is reviewed. The taxonomic position of the 10 Nearctic species is discussed and the keys to females and males given.
