Abstract

A Complete revision of the genus Iteaphila was made. Described as new species were Iteaphila bulbosa from Alberta and British Columbia, Iteaphila longirostris from Quebec, and Iteaphila pumila from Alaska, Northwest Territories, and Yukon Terrotory. Iteaphila conjuncta was placed in synonymy with Iteaphila nitidula. This left fourteen species of the genus Iteaphila in North America. Keys to the species, descriptions, seasonal occurrences, flower records, illustrations of the male terminalia, and distribution maps were provided
