Abstract

Solifuges represent a poorly described group of arachnids with a worldwide distribution. Within this group, many species have not been described, and for those that are, the geographical distributions are not known. Here, we describe the expanded distribution range of the mummuciid species, Gaucha mauryi, recorded for the first time in the state of Pernambuco, in Northeastern Brazil. In addition, we provide a list, compiled from the literature, of solifuge species in Brazil.
