Abstract
A male specimen of the copepod Caligus chelifer Wilson, 1905, was collected during a plankton survey carried out during February 1994 off the Mexican coasts of the eastern Gulf of Mexico (Tamaulipas state). This is the first record of this species in Mexican waters and south of the 25ºN in the Northwestern Atlantic. Taxonomic illustrations of the specimen are provided.
