Marachernes simulans is a species of pseudoscorpion in the Chernetidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 1992 by Australian arachnologist Mark Harvey. The specific epithet simulans comes from the Latin simulo ('imitate' or 'copy') with reference to the similarity between this species and Marachernes perup.[1][2]
