Abstract
One hundred and forty identified and 26 unidentified species of copepods reported from 120 fish species, two turtle spe-cies, one manatee species, four crab species, four mollusk species, two polychaete species, four ascidian species, and 21from plankton samples from Mexico are listed. The list contains information about the site of infection, host habitat, lo-calities and references. In addition, a host-parasite list is also provided. Most reports (97%) are from marine or brackishhabitats infecting fish hosts (71% of all reports). This information shows that knowledge about the biodiversity of parasitic copepods in Mexico is in its infancy.
