Abstract
Eleven new species of Euryglossula Michener are described: E. aeneoceps, E. elizabethae, E. eremophilae, E. incisa, E. kubinensis, E. laticeps, E. pallida, E. pinnulata, E. purpurea, E. scalaris and E. storeyi. The male of E. variepicta Exley is described for the first time. As now understood, the genus Euryglossula contains 18 species. New floral records and illustrated identification keys for both sexes of all species of the genus are provided. Variations in some diagnostic features of Euryglossula and the taxonomic placement of some species are discussed.
