Item Identification

Title: GT-polygon
Short Name: GT-polygon
Status: Completed
Abstract:

Invertebrates depicted in this atlas include selected marine, estuarine, and diadromous species. Species of commercial, recreational, ecological, and/or conservation interest are emphasized. Major invertebrate (and finfish) distributions were mapped using three major geographic divisions: nearshore and shelf waters, offshore waters, and estuarine areas/back-reef embayments. In a few locations, inland streams or guts with recently documented occurrences of native stream shrimp were mapped. Note that native stream shrimp are likely to occur in other streams and guts as well, even though they are not shown on the maps. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
