Resumen
Los crustáceos peracáridos comprenden un diverso grupo de invertebrados, comunes en ambientes terrestres, acuáticos dulceacuícolas y marinos. En este trabajo se revisa la diversidad de especies de los órdenes Amphipoda, Cumacea, Isopoda, y Tanaidacea, actualmente reportada para Chile. Otros grupos taxonómicos comúnmente incluidos en Peracarida no han sido citados aún para Chile. Presentamos en este trabajo una lista sistemática de los taxa de peracáridos y su distribución geográfica en Chile desde los 18°S hasta los 56°S, incluyendo el Archipiélago de Juan Fernández e Isla de Pascua. En un análisis preliminar, la distribución de las especies registradas para Chile sugiere que la diversidad de especies aumenta de norte a sur. El hecho que aún existen importantes areas geográficas con inusualmente bajos números de especies, y que muchas especies registradas para Chile tienen registros únicos, refuerza la necesidad de trabajos taxonómicos futuros, con el objeto de obtener un más adecuado conocimiento de la diversidad de especies de este importante grupo de invertebrados.
Crustacean peracarids are a diverse group of invertebrates, common in terrestrial, freshwater and marine environments. The present study examines the species diversity of the orders Amphipoda, Cumacea, Isopoda, and Tanaidacea, presently reported from Chile. Other peracarid groups have not been recorded from Chile. A systematic list of presently recorded peracarid species and their geographic distribution in Chile from 18°S to 56°S, including the Archipelago of Juan Fernández and Isla de Pascua is provided. A preliminary biogeographic analysis suggests that species diversity increases from North to South. The facts that there are still large areas with unusually low number of species, and that many species recorded for Chile are unique records underlines the need for future taxonomic efforts in order to gain a thorough overview of the diversity of this important and species-rich group of invertebrates. Keywords: Peracarida, Amphipoda, Isopoda, Tanaidacea, Cumacea, Southwest Pacific
