Mysateles garridoi Garrido's hutia (Capromys garridoi) is a small, critically endangered, rat-like mammal found in coastal mangrove forests on Cuba and nearby islands.

[2] It is a member of the hutia subfamily (Capromyinae), a group of rodents native to the Caribbean that are mostly endangered or extinct.

The only other species in its genus, the Desmarest's hutia (Capromys pilorides), is also found only on Cuba.

The American Society of Mammalogists tentatively recognizes it as a distinct species.

[note 1] Its range is thought to include small islands in the Banco de los Jardins y Jardinillos of Canarreos Archipelago south of Cuba's Zapata Peninsula and east of the Isle of Youth.
