Abstract
During a survey on the arachnid fauna in the Central Brazilian Cerrado, Goiás State, a new species of the genus Cheiridium Menge, 1855, was found. This specimen represents the third record of this genus in Brazil, and it is described as a new species, Cheiridium piracanjubae sp. n. The species represents an important record for a biome considered a biodiversity hotspot, but with a still poorly known arachnid fauna. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:74b9b1fa-eb67-47a6-baa6-f14d7b5b508a.
