The dataset contains information about the “Colección Regional de Equinodermos de la Península de Yucatán” (federal register COREPY-DGVS-CC-307-18) at the Unidad Multidisciplinaria de Docencia e Investigación, Faculty of Science, UNAM. This dataset represents only specimens of Echinoderms identified to genus and species (1470 specimens) from 24 localities of the coast and coral reefs at the Gulf of Mexico and Mexican Caribbean for a period of time from 2008 to 2020. The dataset contains information of specimens belonging to 37 families of the five Classes of echinoderms (Ophiuroidea, Asteroidea, Crinoidea, Holothuroidea, and Echinoidea). The specimens at the collection have been either identified or validated by professional echinoderms taxonomists, providing a significant level of trust in the data. The taxonomists that participated in this process appear in the list of authors.
