Abstract:
"This paper presents abundance data for hogfish (Lachnolaimus maximus) populations in the Florida Keys and Dry Tortugas from diver visual surveys. For the Florida Keys, data are provided for both pre-exploited (fork length less than 300 mm) and exploited (fork length greater or equal to 300 mm) life stages of hogfish for annual diver surveys from 1994 to 2012. For the Dry Tortugas region, hogfish data (pre-exploited and exploited) are provided for surveys conducted in 1999, 2000, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2010, and 2012 (surveys in the Dry Tortugas have been conducted biannually since 2004)."
