摘要

Nineteen naturally occurring and one man-made benthic community habitat types are described in terms of the commercially important fish species assemblages found occurring there. Marine habitat types were mapped for all of St. John from National Oceanographic Survey aerial photographs and groundtruthed by divers from January to May 1984 to determine accuracy of mapping and to describe each habitat in detail. Fish species assemblages are determined using a random point, visual census technique which appears to be quite accurate. Results indicate that each benthic habitat type can be distinctly described in terms of its unique fish species assemblage and life history function. The life history function is viewed as a continuum primarily related to distance from shore and depth with habitats like mangrove shoreline and back reefs. Habitats with greater structural complexity tend to contain a greater number of species.
