This species has been recorded from Madagascar, Hungary, United States, the Antilles and Brazil. The record presented here is the first record of the species for Mexico and the first record for an halacarid mite from continental waters in the country. A key to the species of Limnohalacarus is given as well as information about the variation shown by the organisms named under L. cultellatus .
