Abstract
An annotated list of the 256 species and subspecies of Syncarida known to occur in the world is
presented, including synonymies, information on habitat type (caves, springs, wells, etc.), type
locality, other localities where the taxa have been found, and an abbreviated reference to the
original description and other important taxonomic references when available. Critical remarks
about the validity of some taxa are included. A summary of genera and species known per continent
and a map of the world distribution of genera is presented. The work includes a comprehensive list
of syncarid literature.
Key words: Crustacea, Syncarida, species list, distribution
