Castro-Longoria Ciencias de la Tierra fish community coastal fishes coastal lagoons ichthyoplankton Gulf of California To analyze the fish community in La Cruz coastal lagoon, Gulf of California, samplings werecarried out during 1989-1991 with four types of tishing gear: plankton net, beach seine, cast net andotter trawl. A total of 34 families, 63 genera and 96 species were registered. The otter trawl caught thehighest number of species (48), followed by the plankton net (40), beach seine (37) and cast net (28).The most representative species for each gear, according to the biological value index, were: juvenilesof Leuresthes sardina for beach seine, and juveniles and adults of Urolophus maculatus for the castnet and otter trawl. The families Gobiidae, Atherinidae, Gerreidae and Engraulidae were important atthe larval stage and responsible for the minimum diversity values. Representatives of these familieswere also important at the juvenile stage. Thus, changes in diversity were influenced by the successionof dominant species. Species of Urolophidae and Gobiidae were found in different development stages, which indicates that they have high dependency on the system for their vital cycle. It issuggested that La Cruz lagoon is an important area for many fish species that make extensive use of itas a refuge, nourishment and/or reproduction zone. 1996 artículo científico 0185-3880 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=48022201 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=480 Ciencias Marinas application/pdf Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Ciencias Marinas (México) Num.2 Vol.22
