Spatial and dietary overlap between red snapper and vermilion snapper (2011-2012)

Dataset extent

This dataset contains abundance data for nine species of reef fish observed at 40 reef sites between Mobile Bay, Alabama and Saint Andrews Bay, Florida, during research cruises in April 2011, August 2011, and April 2012. It also contains gut content analysis data for two of these species - red snapper (Lutjanus campechanus) and vermilion snapper (Rhomboplites aurorubens) - sampled from half of the sites during each cruise.
