Abstract

There are 14 species of crayfishes (Decapoda: Cambaridae) reported from Kansas, although there are questions about the systematics of some taxa. These species are listed by their current names and the synonyms under which they have been reported since 1885, along with their conservation status. Published references that include each species in Kansas are also noted. In addition, information about species with type localities in Kansas and unresolved taxonomic issues are summarized. The list of species has been updated in 2025 to include two species introduced to Kansas and other new information.
