Resumen:
A new genus and species in the South American sun-spider family Mummuciidae, Curanahuel aconcagua gen. nov., sp. nov., is herein described from Argentina. The new genus is known from two localities in the provinces of Mendoza and San Juan, both inserted into the Cuyan High Andean biogeographic province. Among other features, this genus can be readily recognized from other mummuciid genera because the ctenidia on the 3rd post-genital sternite are very distinct, these being exceptionally thick in male and also notably thick in female. With this description, Mummuciidae now consists of eight genera that gather 26 known species.
