Resumen

The family Mesembrinellidae is restricted to the Neotropical region, comprising 53 known species, which are distributed from Mexico to Argentina. In Mexico, six species have been recorded. Here, we present the first records of Mesembrinella nigrocoerulea Whitworth, 2019 and Souzalopesiella facialis (Aldrich, 1922) from Mexico, as well as new geographical records of M. bicolor (Fabricius, 1805) and M. socors (Walker, 1861), increasing the number of Mexican species to eight. In addition, we provide images of both males and females, a distribution map for all species recorded in Mexico, and report for the first time Laneella fuscosquamata Whitworth, 2019 as a sarcosaprophagous species.
