Abstract

A checklist of North American solifugae is presented along with their type localities, location of types, known numbers of specimens of each sex collected and the biomic distribution of each species. One hundred ninety-six solifugid species have been recorded in mainland North America, mostly from the United States. Forty-eight species are known from types only. Fifty-five species are known from males only and twenty-four are known from females only. The large hot deserts, Chihuahua and Sonora, contain the majority of collected solifugid species.
