Abstract
A catalog of the living termites of the New World is presented, including all known synonyms, geographical distribution, type depositories, and a selected bibliography. The number of termite genera recorded for the New World is 86, and the number of species 543. The following taxonomical changes are included: Curvitermes projectidens is transferred to Armitermes, and Nasutitermes columbicus is treated as a junior synonym of N. guayanae. Most subspecies are treated as full species. Available names of uncertain taxonomic position are presented in a separate list.Keywords
