A new species of Gonatodes from central Guyana is described, illustrated, and named in honor of one of Guyana's outstanding citizens, Mr. Alexander Mendes. To date, the species is known only from rain forest habitat at two localities. One (the type locality) is in the drainage system of the Konawaruk River, a western tributary of the Essequibo River, with its confluence to the south of the Potaro River confluence. The other locality is Kaieteur National Park, on the Potaro River.
