Supplementary descriptions are given for some of the species referred to Sthenelais Kinberg, including the two species originally described by Kinberg (1855) and three synonyms. Two groups of species are separated from Sthenelais and assigned to new genera: Willeysthenelais, with three new combinations, three synonyms, and four new species; and Fimbriosthenelais, with five new combinations, nine synonyms, and one new species. Definitions of the three genera, with keys to the presently recognized species of the new genera, are followed by redescriptions of the species, based in large part on examination of the type-specimens.
