The present paper is a result of the project “Inventory and study of the invertebrate fauna of the Caldera de Taburiente National Park on La Palma, Canary Islands. Among the four species of Pipunculidae recorded, Chalarus guanche Kehlmaier sp. nov. is described and also recorded from Madeira, whereas Tomosvaryella freidbergi De Meyer, 1995 and T. parakuthyi De Meyer, 1995 are first records for La Palma. The morphological and molecular variability of C. guanche sp. nov. is studied and the presence of intragenomic variation in ITS2 rDNA is discussed. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:D6A9AA88-A717-4AC2-AA8C-B32F1C91081E
