The present contribution describes 3 new species of Agastoschizomus , 2 from caves in Tamaulipas and Estado de México; the third one from a cave in Texas, USA. With this contribution, the genus Agastoschizomus attains the same richness as Protoschizomus (8 species) and the family distribution expands to include the USA.
