The genus Leptus (larvae) is revised based on type specimens and other specimens from species and locations worldwide. A total of 220 species were identified and divided into 8 morpho-groups, and 40 subgroups of species; the following synonymies were also made: Leptus (Leptus) eslamizadehi as a junior synonym of L. (L.) trimaculatus, L. (L.) ilzae as a junior synonym of L. (L.) kyushuensis, L. (L.) laplandicus as a junior synonym of L. (L.) clethrionomydis, L. (L.) alopecurus as a junior synonym of L.
