Abstract
Abstract Mexico is a megadiverse country, with 10% of all known species found within its borders. The CONABIO catalogue registers rotifers as one of the best-studied groups of animals in Mexico, with the number of species recorded representing 18% of the total global rotifer fauna. However, this registry does not record a single exotic species of Rotifera in Mexico. Here, we confirm the presence of six species of exotic rotifers in Mexican inland waters, highlighting the case of Kellicottia bostoniensis, recorded in Mexico since the 1990’s, but never as an exotic species.
