Many rocky reefs exist in the Gulf of California; however, there are few studies on the fish communities that inhabit them. In the present work, these communities are evaluated through visual censuses at four sites of the southwestem coast of the gulf. The specifíc richness, frequency, evenness and...

En el Golfo de California existe una gran cantidad de arrecifes rocosos; sin embargo, son pocos los estudios sobre las comunidades de peces que los habitan. En el presente trabajo se evalúan estas comunidades mediante censos visuales en cuatro sitios de la costa suroeste del golfo. Se analizaron la riqueza específica, frecuencia de ocurrencia, equitatividad y diversidad en cada sitio, así como los cambios que se presentaron entre las estaciones del año y entre los sitios estudiados. Se registró un total de 76 especies; las cinco más abundantes fueron Stegastes spp., Thalassoma lucasanum, Abudefduf troschelii, Chromis atrilobata y Haemulon maculicauda, las cuales presentaron abundancias importantes en la mayoría de las zonas y durante la mayor parte del tiempo del estudio. Sólo las tres primeras especies estuvieron presentes en todos los censos realizados. La estructura de las comunidades presentó diferencias entre las estaciones y entre los sitios de estudio; sin embargo, el valor de diversidad no varió significativamente. La zona con un mayor número de especies fue Cueva de León. Se detectó una relación positiva entre la riqueza específica y la temperatura.
