Abstract

A new species of Venezuelan whip scorpions belonging to the genus Mastigoproctus Pocock is herein described from Bolivar state. This new species mainly differs from the Venezuelan Mastigoproctus formidabilis Hirst, and the Colombian Mastigoproctus colombianus Mello-Leitão in male pedipalp sculpture and proportions as well as in female genitalia. Now, Mastigoproctus is represented in Venezuela by two apparently very related species.
