The list includes 175 species in three classes, 18 orders, 44 families, 19 subfamilies, and 114 genera. For each type, taxonomic comments are given, synonymy and conservation status, distribution within the island and rangewide, abundance and commercial value are clarified. Latin and English names are given. As is also a complete bibliography on the first descriptions and synonyms are provided.
