The Neotropical species of Styringomyia (Diptera: Limoniidae) are revised. S. americana Alexander, 1914 and S. dorsolineata Alexander, 1945 are considered nomina dubia. S. mystica Alexander, 1945, S. simplex Alexander, 1945 and S. paulista Alexander, 1946 are redescribed and illustrated in detail. Five new species, S. amazonica sp. n., S. atlantica sp. n., S. maya sp. n., S. manauara sp. n. and S. youngi sp. n. are described and illustrated. A cladistic analysis of the recognizable species (S. americana and S. dorsolineata excluded) is performed. A cladogram is produced with the topology ((S. maya sp. n. (S. simplex + S. amazonica sp. n.)) (S. manauara sp. n. ((S. mystica + S. youngi sp. n.) (S. paulista + S. atlantica sp. n.)))).
