Adult organisms of Pseudoeurycea mixteca were found in a cave of about 80 meters deep at a xerophile vegetation in the Tehuacan Valley, Puebla. The specimens were located under stones in humid sand. Previous reports of this species were from pine-oak forest in northwestern Oaxaca, living under the bark of logs or inside rotten logs. This new record increases the known distribution of the species and habitat type.
