Resumen
A new arrangement of the Patagonian lizards of the <i>Liolaemus fitzingeri</i> group is discussed. Three geographical forms are proposed: <i>L. fitzingeri melanops</i> Burmeister North of Rio Chubut; <i>L. fitzingeri canqueli</i> subsp. nov. from the volcanic Meseta Canquel, Central Chubut; <i>L. fitzingeri fitzingeri</i> (Dumeril et Bibrdn) from Southern Chubut and Santa Cruz territories. A redescription of <i>L. fitzingeri melanops</i> is given. Populations from Meseta Canquel, formerly considered by the author as <i>L. fitzingeri melanops</i>, are synonymized with <i>L. fitzingeri canqueli</i> subsp. nov.
