Echinoderms within the Eastern Tropical Pacific have mainly been studied in association with coral reefs. Investigations on echinoderms associated with soft-bottoms and estuaries are still scarce. The present study reports on the echinoderm species inhabiting the soft-bottom sediments of shallow-brackish waters adjacent to the largest river basin along the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, Terraba-Sierpe wetland. Nine species were recorded, three of them new records for Costa Rica: Luidia columbia , L . latiradiata, and L . superba. The most common species were L . columbia , Astropecten armatus , A . regalis, and L . latiradiata . This contributes towards current knowledge on the biodiversity of Terraba-Sierpe wetland and should be considered as a baseline upon which to monitor the effects of future impacts on this important mangrove area.
