Resumen:
A new Phymaturus species of the flagellifer (= palluma) group inhabiting the Reserve Laguna del Diamante (San Carlos, Mendoza province) is described herein as Phymaturus gynechlomus. The meristic and morphometric characters of this new specie are compared to the equivalent set of traits of other geographically close species of the same group. The new species stands out for the uniform dorsal colour of females, with an absence of a pattern of spots, dark irregular ocellus or grooves which differentiate it from the females of the other known species of the group.
