Rocky reef fish community structure in two Azorean islands (Portugal) central North Atlantic
Copyright © Cambridge University Press 2010. The community structure of shallow rocky reef fish fauna of the Azores Archipelago is described from underwater visual censuses carried out at eight areas (Terceira and Corvo Islands). A total of 52 fish species from 26 different families was observed, an...
