Remarks

This genus occurs from Canada to Mexico, as well as in the Palearctic Region. In the New World, there are 28 described species. See Figs 130, 149, and 175 for a habitus illustration and morphological details. See Clark (1996) for a key to most of the North American species. Only one New World species has been described subsequent to that publication (Gilbert & Andrews 1999). The Palearctic species were revised by Bezděk (2015).
