We count the number of conjugacy classes of maximal, genus g, surface subroups in hyperbolic 3–manifold groups. For any closed hyperbolic 3–manifold, we show that there is an upper bound on this number which grows factorially with g. We also give a class of closed hyperbolic 3–manifolds for which there is a lower bound of the same type.
