Type-species. F. penneri Causey, 1957 , by original designation.

Diagnosis. With the characters of the tribe.

Components. Three species– F. penneri Causey, 1957 ; F. orini Shelley 2014 ; and F. floydi n. sp. – are known, but we believe more exist in uninvestigated peninsular ridges.

Distribution ( Fig. 1 View Figure 1 ). Same as that of the tribe. Floridobolus is known only from the Lake Wales Ridge, Highlands/Polk Cos., the Ocala National Forest, Marion Co., around 208 km ( 130 mi) to the north, and the southern half of the Brooksville Ridge, Citrus and Hernando Cos., about 101 km ( 63 mi) northwest of the former and 64 km ( 40 mi) southwest of the latter.
