Genus Steinovelia Polhemus & Polhemus, 1993 View in CoL

Steinovelia currently comprises five described species and its distribution extends from southeastern Canada to Argentina ( Polhemus & Polhemus, 1993).The species can be collected among emergent vegetation in lentic environments and are occasionally collected in light traps. Although the genus is not very diverse, it is in need of a taxonomic revision to determine if all species are valid.
