Resumen:
The following five new species of Culicoides from Colombia are described, illustrated and placed to subgenus or species group: Culicoides antioquiensis Spinelli, C. gabrieli Spinelli, C. inermis Spinelli, C. micayensis Spinelli, and C. nigrifemur Spinelli. Culicoides gabrieli is also known from Peru. When possible, their position in previously published keys is indicated and their features discussed in light of the most recent revisions. A list of 180 Culicoides species known (114) or suspected of being in Colombia (66) is given in a table. Of these, 12 including the new species, are recorded from Colombia for the first time.
