Abstract

The Colenis of the United States and Canada are reviewed. Three new species are described: Colenis (Colenis) bifida n.sp., Colenis (Colenis) stephani n.sp., and Colenis (Colenis) ora n.sp. The Colenis subgenus name Carcharodes Hlisnikovsky is preoccupied: Colenodes is proposed as a replacement name.
