Celetes Newman is found to be a junior homonym of Celetes Schönherr and Leptoceletes Green is proposed as a replacement name for it (new synonymy, status, and sense). This results in the following new combinations: Leptoceletes basalis (LeConte), Leptoceletes burchelli (Bourgeois), Leptoceletes dehiscens (Green), Leptoceletes leo (Zaragoza), Leptoceletes pallidus (Green), Leptoceletes subtilis (Kleine).
