Echinoderms collected by the CIOH-INVEMAR-SMITHSONIAN expedition from Cartagena to Uraba Gulf, Colombian Caribbean

22 Echinoderms species collected in 21 stations using a semiballoon trawling net from Cartagena to Uraba Gulf between 30 and 380 m depth by the 1995 CIOH-INVEMAR-SMITHSONIAN expedition are listed, diagnosed and illustrated. The species included two crinoids, seven asteroids, five ophiuroids, four equinoids and four holothuroids. Astropecten nitidus, Plutonaster agassizi, Tethyaster grandis and Leptopentacta deichmannae are first records to the Caribbean Sea, and Astropecten alligator, Anthenoides piercei, Amphiodia atra, Amphilimna olivacea, Ophiomusium acuferum, Araeosoma fenestratum and Molpadia parve are first records for the Colombian Caribbean. Grouping analysis between stations, based in presence - absense data, evidenced a pattern of stations relationships according depth. However, data are insuficient for determining zonation schemes in the area.
