Abstract: About 2,500 specimens of coral from 28 different sites around
Enewetak Atoll were collected, labelled, cleaned and divided among
approximately 170 species of scleractinians and about 5 species of
non-scleractinian corals. A complete collection of the best specimens
was given to the MPML; and another complete collection was deposited in
the Bishop Museum. Remaining replicates were given to the USNM
(Washington),
the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie
(Leiden),
and
the British Museum (London). Fairly detailed habitat and living
appearance records were made for most specimens, and some were
photographed underwater. Some of the specimens in the MPML and BPBM
collections are being photographed to show skeletal characteristics.
This collection and data are currently forming the basis of the
Enewetak reef coral guide (Lang et al., manuscript in prep.). The
specific information recorded for the specimens will be transferred to
tape and stored in the Hawaii Coastal Zone Data Bank. After publication
of the guide, all original B and W photographic negatives and color
transparencies will be deposited in the Bishop Museum. ;
