  • Title: Reef Fish of Navassa Island 2004

• Abstract:

• •         This record refers to reef fish data collected on the 2004 cruise to Navassa Island National Wildlife Refuge. The random point count method (Bohnsack-Bannerot 1986) was used and parameters collected include 1) sample information (latitude-longitude, depth, date, observer, time, visibility); fish species (numbers and size ranges); and 3) habitat information (percent benthic cover, bottom type, and rugosity).
          

• Purpose:

• •         To document and assess reef fish assemblages at Navassa Island.
