We discuss bounds on neutrino masses using an analysis based on direct measurements, cosmological bounds, oscillation experiments, the solar neutrino puzzle and theoretical considerations on neutrino decays. We present four possible solutions for the mass range of the three neutrino flavors. We outline experiments which can distinguish among these solutions and discuss their implications for the cosmological dark matter problem.
