Erythropsidinium agile, a dinoflagellate of the Warnowiaceae Family, is recorded for the first time in the Mexican Pacific, within Bahia from La Paz (Gulf of California). 26 were observed specimens of E. agile, mainly in samples of network phytoplankton for the study period (June, 2006 to June, 2010). In bottle samples, estimated densities between 80 and 1000 cells. L – 1. The specimens of E. agile showed great variation in shape, size and coloration; occurred mainly in the winter-spring period, when the water column is homogeneous, at temperatures between 19 and 22 ° C and rich in nutrients.
