We here document three new records for the genus Gracilinanus Gardner & Creighton 1989 in the province of Misiones, Argentina. A re-evaluation of the available morphological evidence suggests that the entire reviewed samples correspond to the same morphotype, which can be referred to G. microtarsus (Wagner, 1842).
