Pittwater Epifauna Data from Mangroves and Saltmarshes 1990-1991

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

This dataset contains species distribution, abundance and identity data of benthic invertebrates from the Pittwater region, NSW. Epifauna samples were obtained every 3 months from mangroves and saltmarshes between June 1991 and March 1991. Taxa identified consisted of 9 species of molluscs, all of which were gastropods. The data were taken as a control site for similiar sampling in Jervis Bay. The data are part of the Jervis Bay Marine Ecological Study. NB - As the database has been lost, the only data still available are those published in the JERVIS BAY BASELINE STUDIES Final Report.
