The need to carry out studies that analyze wildlife crime within countries has been recognized in order to have a better understanding of the phenomenon. In order to know how many species and which ones are sold in Mexico City, we conducted 14 visits to three major markets in Mexico City and conducted an analysis of the groups of amphibians and reptiles sold as pets and ornamental animals. We recorded a total of 31,919 individuals comprising 90 different species (14 amphibians, 76 reptiles) and found that 92.8% of the amphibians and 76.9% of the reptiles are protected by the Mexican government NOM-059, IUCN Red List and/or CITES. Significant differences (W = 3.14, p < 0.05) were found in the number of registered organisms of the amphibian species, as well as in the number of registered individuals per reptile species (W = 7.52, p < 0.001). We consider it necessary to evaluate all native species of amphibians and reptiles in the commercial market that could be included in sustainable use plans as a tool for their management.   Los anfibios y los reptiles han ganado popularidad como mascotas y el número de especies que se ofrecen a la venta va en aumento. Se ha reconocido la necesidad de realizar estudios que analicen los delitos contra la vida silvestre a nivel mundial para tener una mejor comprensión del fenómeno. Con el objetivo de conocer cuantas especies y cuáles son las que se venden en la Ciudad de México, realizamos 14 visitas a tres importantes mercados y realizamos un análisis de los grupos de anfibios y reptiles vendidos como mascotas y animales ornamentales. Registramos un total de 31 919 individuos de 90 especies diferentes (14 de anfibios, 76 de reptiles) y encontramos que el 92.8% de los anfibios y el 76.9% de los reptiles están protegidos por la Norma mexicana NOM-059, la Lista Roja de la UICN y/o CITES. Se encontraron diferencias significativas (W = 3.14, p < 0.05) en el número de organismos registrados de las especies de anfibios, así como en el número de individuos registrados por especie de reptiles (W = 7.52, p < 0.001). Consideramos necesario evaluar todas las especies nativas de anfibios y reptiles comercializados que podrían ser incluidos en programas de aprovechamiento sustentable como una herramienta para su manejoSociedad Herpetológica Mexicana A.

The need to carry out studies that analyze wildlife crime within countries has been recognized in order to have a better understanding of the phenomenon. In order to know how many species and which ones are sold in Mexico City, we conducted 14 visits to three major markets in Mexico City and conducted an analysis of the groups of amphibians and reptiles sold as pets and ornamental animals.
