Resumo

This paper presents three new genera and species of pygocephalomorph crustaceans from outcrops in Pantano Grande and Minas do Leão counties, State of Rio Grande do Sul, Southern Brazil.The silty shales present molds of mostly articulated crustaceans, in association with Glossopteris, insect remains and fish scales.These new genera expand the number of Pygocephalomorpha from the Irati Formation and contribute to the knowledge on the Gondwanan Malacostraca species.
