Abstract

The first work that reviews the taxonomic knowledge of Oniscidea of Chile is presented. 11 families and 37 species are recorded from the country, 29 of them are native and eight introduced. Mostly works in Chilean oniscofauna are taxonomic studies; however, yet remain numerous problems to resolve and revisions of great part of the groups are needed. A species checklist with synonymic information is provided.
