1 Doubtful record; to be taken as some species of that genus or family.
2 Re­identification of specimens reported as Cyclops aequoreus by Marsh (1913).
3 Re­identification of specimens reported as Cyclops leuckarti by Marsh (1913).
4 New record for Panama.
5 Some records may refer to other species of Thermocyclops (see Coker, 1943; Reid, 1989).
6 Cyclops is a boreal genus; this record should be taken to refer to some species of cyclopoid.
