Carolina Berner and Allen, and E. spiculosa Berner and Allen, is known only from the nymphal stage. Ephemerella molita McDunnough is of uncertain status; E. teresa Traver (=E. cognata Traver), new synonymy. Illustrated keys are given to the known nymphs and adults, and distributions and complete synonymies are given for each species.
