La base de datos consta de 243 comparsas, lo que permite por primera vez apreciar la extraordinaria magnitud que tuvieron las referencias a la colectividad negra en los carnavales de antaño. Las comparsas se listan con sus nombres y años de existencia, clasificadas por la etnicidad de sus miembros y con cuadros y gráficos que permiten ver la evolución temporal. Al final, mediante ejercicios estadísticos se proponen modos de subsanar sesgos y omisiones de archivo que permitan arribar a una idea más cabal de la magnitud y patrones de evolución temporal de las comparsas de cada tipo étnico. O artigo apresenta um levantamento crítico de todas as trupes e grupos carnavalescos formados por Afroporteños ou brancos que se vestiam de negros e / ou imitavam danças e ritmos de raízes africanas que se apresentavam nos carnavais de Buenos Aires entre 1865 e 1922. A base da os dados consistem em 243 trupes, o que permite, pela primeira vez, avaliar a extraordinária magnitude que as referências à comunidade negra tiveram nos carnavais de outrora. As trupes são listadas com seus nomes e anos de existência, classificadas pela etnia de seus integrantes e com tabelas e gráficos que permitem ver a evolução ao longo do tempo. Ao final, por meio de exercícios estatísticos, são propostas formas de correção de vieses e omissões de arquivos que permitem uma ideia mais completa da magnitude e dos padrões de evolução temporal das trupes de cada tipo étnico a serem alcançados.
