- Lasionectes entrichoma Yager & Schram, 1986
- Speleonectes Yager, 1981
- Speleonectes epilimnius Yager & Carpenter, 1999
- Speleonectes gironensis Yager, 1994

- Speleonectes minnsi Koenemann, Iliffe & van der Ham, 2003
- Speleonectes tanumekes Koenemann, Iliffe & van der Ham, 2003
Several former Speleonectes species have recently been transferred to other genera:[5]
- Speleonectes atlantida (to Morlockia atlantida)
- Speleonectes benjamini (to Angirasu benjamini)
- Speleonectes tulumensis (to Xibalbanus tulumensis)
