摘要：

We describe new records of horsehair worms (Nematomorpha) from Central America and islands of the Caribbean Sea, provide updated descriptions including scanning electron microscopy and include a list of all species known from this region. Three new species are described: Pseudochordodes bulbareolatus from Mexico and Guatemala, Neochordodes chordodides from Costa Rica and Belize, and Chordodes polytuberculatus from Costa Rica. From Belize and Trinidad (Gordius robustus), nematomorphs are reported for the first time. Further records include species known from North America (Pseudochordodes manteri, Neochordodes occidentalis) or from South America (Pseudochordodes meridionalis). The actual number of species known from continental Central America is 22 species from five genera, and from Caribbean islands five species from three genera are known.
