This paper is devoted to data on the zooplankton collected at the Mexican bench in the western part of the Gulf of Mexico. Samples were collected at two diurnal stations every 3—6 hours. As a result of analysing samples from this region considerable diurnal changes were registered in the plankton content, caused by diurnal vertical migration of plankton and by its periodical horizontal motion together with water masses of various salinity. It was found that the number of chaetognaths in the samples is closely connected with the seston volume (the correlation coefficient is +0.90 ±0.03). It was confirmed that the group of chaetognaths has a certain indicatory significance for discovering water masses with various characteristics; specifically, it was established that Sagitta serratodendata can be an indicator of oceanic water inflow in the shelf zone, if S. hispida is an indicator of a certain desalinization. Sagitta decipiens should be included in the chaetognath list of the Gulf of Mexico.
