An inventory of the estuarine fauna in the vicinity of Pensacola, Florida
This faunal inventory of the Pensacola Estuary, Florida, records 654 species of benthic and pelagic animals collected systematically from 1961 through 1963 and casually in other years. Sampling dates were correlated with approximate mid-points of spring rise and autumnal decline as well as annual ex...
