Abstract

<br> In this contribution, the diagnostic characters of the myodochine genus<br> Dushinckanus<br> Brailovsky, 1979 are discussed. The male of<br> D. camelopardus<br> Harrington, 1987 is described for the first time, and its distribution is extended north to French Guiana, as is that of<br> D. ashlocki<br> Harring, 1987. Additionally, three new species from French Guiana are described. Dorsal habitus and male genitalic photographs are provided and an updated key to separate the species in the genus is given.<br>
