We report five new records of Rhodophyta from the Mexican Caribbean; they are all rare species in the Caribbean. Liagora tsengii was known only from Guadeloupe and St. Kitts. Neogoniolithon trichotomum has been reported from the Atlantic coast of Costa Rica. The record of Hypoglossum simulans is the second outside the type locality in Guadeloupe. Hypoglossum subsimplex has been reported from the Bermudas, Puerto Rico and Colombia; and Asteromenia peltata was known from Venezuela, Brazil, Jamaica, Cuba and Florida. Information and detailed illustrations are presented on the morphology and reproductive stages of these species.
