Abstract
A new genus and species, Spinochactas mitaraka gen. n., sp. n. (Chactidae) are described from the Mitaraka Massif in French Guiana, a site located near the borders of French Guiana, Brazil, and Suriname. The description of the new genus and species brings further evidence of the biogeographic pattern of distribution presented by some elements of the family Chactidae endemic to the Tepuys or to the Inselberg formations of South America.Keywords: Endemism; Endémisme; French Guiana; Guyane française; Inselberg; New genus and species; Nouveau genre et nouvelle espèce; Scorpiones; Spinochactas gen. n.
