Zusammenfassung:The first list of decapod crustaceans of the northwestern Atlantic oceanic island group of Bermuda compiled since 1922 is presented. Based on published accounts and recent collections, the list includes 276 species in 48 families; of these, 69 species have not been recorded previously from Bermuda. Only 6 species are endemic. An expanded and fully annotated checklist of Bermudian decapods as well as considerations of the zoogeography of that fauna will be published later.
