The North American genus Slaterocoris Wagner is revised and now contains 32 species. The new genus Josephinus is erected to accommodate three Mexican species, the type species, Slaterocoris reinhardiCarvalho and Schaffner, 1973, along with Scalponotatus albicornis Kelton, 1970, and Scalponotatus capitatus Kelton, 1970. Slaterocoris argenteoides, S. clavatus, S. elongatus, S. maculatus, and S. tanydexios from southern Mexico are described as new. The new combinations Slaterocoris punctatus (Distant, 1893) [Jornandes] and Slaterocoris subalbicans (Distant, 1893) [Jornandes] are proposed resulting in two subjective junior synonyms of Slaterocoris for the monotypic genera, GuerrerocorisCarvalho and China, 1959 and AmulacorisCarvalho and China, 1959, respectively. A review of the genus ScalponotatusKelton, 1969, provides a new diagnosis and description of the genus and the type species, S. maturusKelton, 1969, and a checklist of the nine species included in the newly conceived genus. Based on examination of the holotypes, the new combinations, Scalponotatus dissimulans (Distant, 1893) [Jornandes] and Jornandes sinaloensis (Carvalho and Costa, 1992) [Scalponotatus] are proposed. The following 23 new specific subjective synonymies are proposed (senior synonym first): Slaterocoris alpinusKelton, 1968 = Slaterocoris schaffneriKnight, 1970; Slaterocoris ambrosiae (Knight, 1938) [Strongylocoris] = Slaterocoris arizonensisKnight, 1970, Slaterocoris bispinosusKnight, 1970, Slaterocoris ovatusKnight, 1970, and Slaterocoris severiniKnight, 1970; Slaterocoris apacheKelton, 1968 = Slaterocoris bifidusKnight, 1970 and
