Abstract
We here describe a new Caecilia from Parque Nacional Natural Yaigojé Apaporis, Taraira, Vaupés, Colombia, near the Brazilian border. Although this new species is only represented in collections by three specimens, it is recognizable from all other congeners by virtue of its head shape, its dentition, its counts of primary and secondary grooves, its oval dermal scales, and its small terminal shield. Although its phylogenetic relationships are unknown, it seems most similar to C. museugoeldi from French Guyana. Describimos una nueva Caecilia proveniente del Parque Nacional Natural Yaigojé Apaporis, Taraira, Vaupés, Colombia, en cercanías de la frontera brasilera. Si bien solo se conocen tres ejemplares de esta especie, esta es reconocible entre todos sus congéneres por la forma de su cabeza, su dentición, sus conteos de surcos primarios y secundarios, sus escamas dérmicas ovaladas y por su pequeño escudo terminal. Aunque sus relaciones filogenéticas se desconocen, esta resulta más similar a C. museugoeldi de Guyana Francesa.
