Resumen:
Nine species of sea anemones are documented from the west coast of the
Peninsula of Baja California. Short descriptions of Anthopleura
artemisia (Pickering in Dana, 1846), A elegantissima (Brandt, 1835), A.
sola Pearse & Francis, 2000 and Epiactis prolifera Verrill, 1869 are
provided, including images of the external and internal anatomy, as well
as cnidae. In addition, an updated list of the sea anemone species
recorded in Mexico, including both the Pacific and Atlantic regions, is
provided. The northern species A. artemisia and E. prolifera are
recorded for the first time in Mexico. With these new records, the
number of sea anemone species known in the Mexican Pacific increases to
35, and to 57 for the entire country.
