Records of seventeen speciesof Mysidaceafrom the Gulf of Mexico are presented. Bowmanielluportoricensis, Pseudomma sp., Siriella thompsonii and Bathymysis renoculata are recorded from the Gulf for the first time. Range extensions within the Gulf are established for Anchialina typica and Mysidopsis furca. Records of Brasilomysis custroi and Mysidopsis almyra from the Atlantic coast of the United States are reported. INTRODUCTION The offshore benthic and planktonic mysidacean fauna of the Gulf of Mexico are poorly known; however, the shallow-water species have been investigated by several authors. Brattegard (1969, 1970) reported eight species from coastal waters off southern Florida and presented their taxonomic characters. Farrell (1979) provided a key to 24 nearshore species from Florida but did not include data on collection sites.The Mysidacea of the western Gulf of Mexico have been studied by Price, who identified seven species from Galveston Bay, Texas (1976), and four species from Mexico (1975, 1978). The taxonomic works of Banner (1953), Clarke (1956), Bicescu (1961, 1969), Bowman (1 964) and Molenock (1969) have also added to the knowledge of the group in the Gulf of Mexico. Ecological studies and baseline inventories in northern Gulf estuaries have contributed data on a limited number of species (cited in text). Records of some Mysidacea from the Gulf of Mexico appear to be in error, due in part to confusion in the literature (Stuck et al. 1979). In addition to establishing new records and range extensions for Gulf mysids, data are presented here to clarify the known distribution of several shallow-water species. MATERIALS AND METHODS This report is based on a collection of mysid shrimps of the family Mysidae from the continental shelf waters off Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida, and supplemented with material from shallow, estuarine waters in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico. Specimens were provided to the authors from the following sources: National Marine Fisheries Service under Public Law 88-309, Project 2-42-R. National Marine Fisheries Service under Public Law 88-309, Project 2-2 15-R. Dames and Moore under Contract N. AA550-CT71.
