Abstract

Two species of the genus Sesioplex Viereck of North America are revised. One new species, californicus, is described, the other, depressus Viereck, is redescribed. The limits of the genus are redefined and a key to adults is provided. The important taxonomic features of both species are illustrated by line drawings.
