Contiguous. Continental would imply the inclusion of Alaska.

Well contiguous would be the lower 48; continental would include AK since last I checked there was no break in North America between the north tip of Central America and the Bering Straights.

As a former federal employee, the word CONUS is used in the civilian and defense branches of the government to mean 'continental United States'.
