CHIAPPA-CARRARA, Xavier  and  AGUILAR-SANTANA, Fernando A.. Range extension of Hypoplectrus ecosur (Teleostei: Serranidae) in the Gulf of Mexico. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2019, vol.90, e901814.  Epub Jan 31, 2019. ISSN 2007-8706.  https://doi.org/10.22201/ib.20078706e.2019.90.1814.

The presence of Hypoplectrus ecosur off the northwest coast of the Yucatán Peninsula is herein documented. The evidence provided in this contribution allows to extend the distributional range of the species to the Gulf of Mexico. Until now, it had only been confirmed in the northeastern tip of the Peninsula within Caribbean waters.
