contents First record of the genus Cyclopina (Copepoda: Cyclopoida), and fully illustrated redescription of Cyclopina caissara from northwestern Mexico Pedro Martínez ARBIZU Samuel Gómez Biología Mexico Copepoda Cyclopina Cyclopoida Specimens of Cyclopina Claus 1863, were collected during a short termstudy in the Urías system (southern Sinaloa, NW Mexico). Preliminary observationsindicated similarity with C. caissara Lotufo 1994, only known from SãoSebastião, Brazil, its type locality. The newly found Cyclopina specimens werethough to belong to a new species. After thorough examination and comparisonwith type material of C. caissara, no significant differences were found as tojustify the establishment of a new species. This is the first record of the genusfrom Mexican localities and the finding of C. caissara in the mouth of the Gulf ofCalifornia represents a range extension of the species from Brazil to the sub-tropical eastern Pacific. Some amendments to the original description regardingthe spinular ornamentation are given. 2004 artículo científico 0368-8720 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=45875104 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=458 Anales del Instituto de Biología.
