This rockfish guide includes color images of 37 species (genera: Sebastes, Sebastolobus, and Adelosebastes) photographed under natural and electronic flash conditions in the field. Most specimens were photographed immediately after collection.
This short presentation is designed to assist groundfish observers in identifying corals to the order level in the field. It is essentially a more detailed version of the two-page coral guide provided as part of the observer identification manual. Representative specimens are on the display in the glass case near the observer training room in Seattle.
