In this paper, we present an update of the information concerning the genus Eufriesea for Colombia. We describe the female Eufriesea dressleri (Kimsey, 1977), the only female of the elegans group not yet described. A taxonomic key is proposed for its identification and the range of distribution of Ef. dressleri, Eufriesea concava, Eufriesea magretti, and Eufriesea pulchra is extended for Colombia including new altitudinal records.

Keywords : Orchid bees; elegans group; Euglossini; Taxonomic keys.
