Resumen:
Three unknown Euathlus species are recognized and formally described. Euathlus diamante Ferretti sp. nov., E. sagei Ferretti sp. nov., and E. tenebrarum Ferretti sp. nov. are described from the Mendoza and Neuquén provinces of western Argentina. The cladistic analysis showed Euathlus as monophyletic supported by the following synapomorphies: i) male tibial apophysis with fused branches bases; ii) presence of a ventral spine on retrolateral branch of male tibial apophysis; iii) sternum longer than wide. According to this cladistics analysis, a tree topology of (H. uruguayense (P. longisternale (G. anthracina (P. scrofa (E. tenebrarum (E. truculentus, E. sagei ((E. parvulus (E. condorito, E. manicata, E. atacama )) (E. antai, E. diamante )))))))) is reported.
