Copépodos (Crustacea) de aguas superficiales del Mar Caribe Mexicano (mayo, 1991)

Zooplankton samples (May, 1991) from neritic and oceanic waters off the eastern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula, produced 70 species of pelagic copepods, Undinula vulgaris, Farranula gracilis, Calanus minor and Temora turbinata were dominant (more than 60% of individuals). Mean diversity was moderate...
