Abstract
Summary The type specimens of the two pseudoscorpion species described by di Caporiacco (1947) from Guyana (former British Guyana) are studied in detail. Geogarypus incertus di Caporiacco, 1947 is considered a valid species and its type locality is clarified as Guyana, Upper Demerara—Berbice region, upper Demerara valley, near Kurupukari. Paratemnus guianensis di Caporiacco, 1947 is considered ajunior subjective synonym of Paratemnoides nidificator (Balzan, 1888) (syn. nov.). Lectotypes are designated for Paratemnoides minor (Balzan, 1892) and Paratemnoides nidificator. Geogarypus incertus and Paratemnoides nidificator are new additions to the fauna of French Guiana.
