A new species of harvestman from the endemic North American genus Hadrobunus Banks, 1900 is described. The species, H. fusiformis, differs substantially from known USA species in both somatic and genital morphology, but the male resembles that of H. knighti from northern Mexico in having a long, narrow penis and posteriorly tapered opisthosoma.
