Genus Coelioxys

Subgenus Synocoelioxys Mitchell, 2 taxa

Note: Coelioxys alternata alternata Say was listed for Florida by Mitchell, not by Hurd, though. Baker's map does not show this species as occurring in Florida. It is likely that this species does not occur in Florida. The map in Baker shows the furthest southern populations to be in the mountains of western North Carolina.
