The whip spiders of the Dominican Republic (Hispaniola, Greater Antilles) are revised. The family Charinidae is recorded for the first time. Three new species of the genus Phrynus Lamarck, 1801 (Phrynidae) and a new species of Charinus Simon, 1891 (Charinidae) are described. Another species of Charinus, very close to C. cubensis (Quintero, 1983), remains unidentified because only young specimens were available.

The family Charinidae is recorded for the first time. Three new species of the genus Phrynus Lamarck, 1801 (Phrynidae) and a new species of Charinus Simon, 1891 (Charinidae) are described. Another species of Charinus, very close to C. cubensis (Quintero, 1983), remains unidentified because only young specimens were available. Only one of the three new Phrynus species is a Hispaniolan endemism, because one of the others inhabits the easternmost part of Cuba, and another one has been found in Mona Island, Puerto Rico. New localities are recorded for Phrynus longipes (Pocock, 1893) and P. marginemaculatus C. L. Koch, 1840 and data on natural history and biogeography of all these species are given. A key for the Dominican amblypygids is included, too. Also, some appendicular anomalies are described.
