A new species of Pilogalumna from the Ecological Reserve Pedregal de San Ángel, Mexico City is described from adult specimens of both sexes, this being the eighth Galumnidae species recorded from Mexico. Pilogalumna rosauraruizae sp. nov. is characterized by a combination of lamellar setae longer than other prodorsal setae, sensillum lanceolated with capitulum slightly barbulated, postanal porose area present, pseudolamellae absent, and 20 setae on the first tarsus. Additionally, the 18S rRNA partial sequence is reported, and an identification key for worldwide species of this genus is provided.
