Abstract

The Nearctic species of the genus Holoteleia are revised. Two named species are redescribed and five new species are described: H. armigera from Florida; H. coriacea, H. laticeps, and H. polita from eastern Canada and the United States; and H. elegans, widespread east of the Rocky Mountains. A diagnosis of Holoteleia and a key to the Nearctic species are given. Potential impact of environmental degradation on the frequency of Holoteleia species in North America is discussed.

Résumé

Les espèces néarctiques du genre Holoteleia ont fait l’objet d’une révision. Deux espèces connues sont décrites de nouveau et cinq nouvelles espèces sont décrites : H. armigera de Floride, H. coriacea, H. laticeps et H. polita de l’est du Canada et des États-Unis, et H. elegans, très répandue à l’est des Rocheuses. On trouvera ici la diagnose du genre Holoteleia, ainsi qu’une clé d’identification des espèces néarctiques. L’influence que peut avoir la détérioration de l’environnement sur la fréquence des espèces d’Holoteleia en Amérique du Nord est examinée.
