An inventory of the estuarine fauna in the vicinity of Pensacola, Florida
This faunal inventory of thePensacola Estuary, Florida, records 654 species of benthic and pelagic animals collectedsystematically from 1961 through 1963 and casually in other years. Samplingdates were correlated with approximate mid-points of spring rise and autumnal declineas well as annual extrem...
