RESUMO

Abstract Dendrocephalus riograndensis n. sp., a new species of fairy shrimp, is described from a single temporary pool in Santa Vitória do Palmar, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Males are readily separated from all other DendrocephalusDaday, 1908species by the form of the frontal appendage and the form of the first thoracopods. This new species is most similar to Dendrocephalus goiasensis Rabet & Thiéry, 1996 and could be confused with this species. This new species appears to be endemic to Rio Grande do Sul.
