Abstract

A new species of Microcaecilia is described from the municipality of Óbidos, state of Pará, in the Brazilian part of the Guianan Region. The new species has a high number of secondary annuli, monocuspid vomeropalatine teeth, and other characteristics that together differentiate it from the other eight known species of the genus.
