【 摘 要 】

This paper includes the current status of the Cichlidae family species introduced in Colombia, with special emphasis on tilapia,. analyzing the situation of its distribution, management, and the impact and status of these illegal activities. The number of intriductions is up to 26 species, among which 12 have been found in freshwater and estuarine habitats. There are several hybridization and transplant cases to different hydrographic basins. Their presence in the aquaculture production farms and,in the fishing industry in recent years, worsens even more the future of native species.
