The Nearctic Acroneuria are reviewed. Twelve species, placed in seven groups, are recognized. Acroneuria flinti, new species, is described for female and ovum and a female holotype designated; A. petersi, new species, is described for the male and a male holotype designated. Diagnoses of male, female, nymph and ovum are presented for other species and males are keyed. Diagnoses and descriptions are supported by original drawings and stereoscan photomicrographs. Lectotypes are designated for A. arida (Hagen) and A. carolinensis (Banks).
