A new species, Galendromus (Mugidromus) agreste sp. nov., was described and illustrated, based on adults of both sexes. Specimens were collected on plants in an Altitudinal Atlantic Forest area of the Caatinga biome, located in the Agreste region of the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. Intraspecific variations in insertion of ventral setae are reported, and an updated identification key for the species of this subgenus is also provided.
