Taxonomic names are those current in 1994; they will be updated, and a column for 2015 inserted. In 2015, I took photos of all species observed that year; these are being posted on iNaturalist as the specimen records for the Bath Flora and Fauna*, similar to the iNaturalist specimen records for Carriacou seagrass species<\/a>, now complete. In the process, IDs are being\u00a0 reviewed and updated and I will determine which\u00a0species or \u201cspecies groups\u201d can be reliably compared between the 3 sampling years.\u00a0 (See Cariacou seagrass paper<\/a>, Materials and methods\/Stations first paragraph.)
\n*Observations are entered with 2 Project Settings – Bath-Conset Bay, Barbados: nearshore marine<\/a> & Flora and fauna of Barbados seagrass beds<\/a> and the tag BathSeagassBed<\/a>. The current list of iNaturalist observations and species for the Bath Sea Grass bed is given by clicking on the Tag BathSeagassBed<\/a>.<\/small><\/p>\n
