    Abstract: 
    The New World species of Lasioglossum (sensu stricto) are revised, based on a study of approximately 25,000 specimens. Fifty-one species are recognized, with 20 described as new. All species are fully described and diagnosed. Flight records are summarized with histogram plots, distributions indicated by dot maps, and illustrated keys provided for species identification. Floral association data are summarized (5348 records) and compared to similar data for California Bombini. The association of Lasioglossum species with phoretic histiostomatid and scuticarid mites is reviewed and infestation levels for involved species presented. A preliminary study of the phylogenetic interrelationships of included species is presented, which includes a character matrix intended to facilitate future cladistic efforts.The new species are L. acarophilum, L. acuminatum, L. anhypops, L. argutum, L. asaphes, L. bajaense, L. cercothrix, L. channelense, L. eickworti, L. katyae, L. lampronotum, L. orphnaeum, L. paraforbesii, L. parkeri, L. perscabrum, L. rupticristum, L. sandrae, L. timberlakei, L. tropidonotum, and L. xyriotropis. Lasioglossum egregium (Vachal) is elevated from junior synonymy, and the following names relegated to synonymy: Halictus supercretus Cockerell under L. circinatum (Vachal); H. ripariellus Cockerell under L. colatum (Vachal); H. matensis Friese under L. costale (Vachal); H. sericeus Friese under L. crocoturum (Vachal); H. cyaneiceps Cockerell under L. desertum (Smith); H. olympiae subangustus Cockerell under L. sisymbrii (Cockerell). A neotype is designated for H. trizonatus Cresson and lectotypes designated for H. costalis Vachal, H. matensis Friese, H. crocoturus Vachal, H. desertus Smith, H. fuscipennis Smith, H. manitouellus Cockerell, H. pacificus Cockerell, and H. sisymbrii Cockerell. Halictus schenckii is treated as a nomen dubium.
