Abstract

The ostracod species Havanardia havanensis and H. sohni are described. They were collected in recent bioclastic sediments of Quintana Roo's continental shelf, between Isla Mujeres and Isla Cozumel. The simples show the following environmental characteristics: an average temperature of 28.5º C, an average salinity of 36‰ and an average depth of 28 m. This genus is considered to be characteristic of reef environments. H. havanensis is restricted to the Mar Caribe area.
