Abstract(s)
As populações litorais de crustáceos decápodes das ilhas do Faial e Pico foram amostradas qualitativamente de 9 a 24 de Julho de 1989. Os métodos de amostragem consistiram, principalmente, em colheitas manuais em substrato rochoso, em praias e em mergulho com escafandro autónomo. Redes de arrasto e sugadoras foram também utilizadas sobre fundos de areia. Foram colhidas ou observadas um total de 41 espécies (16 famílias). Para cada espécie são fornecidos os seguintes dados: localidade(s), profundidade e/ou habitar, data de colheita, número, sexo, presença de ovas e tamanhos. São produzidas algumas considerações de ordem faunística, taxonómica e ecológica.
ABSTRACT: The littoral decapod crustacean populations of the islands of Faial and Pico were qualitatively sampled from 9 to 24 July 1989. Sampling methods consisted mainly of shore and SCUBA diving manual collecting on rocky substrates, but trawl nets and suction devices were also used on sandy bottoms. A total number of 41 species (16 families) were collected or observed. The following data are given under each species: locality(ies), depth and/or habitat, number, sex, ovigerous condition and sizes. Some faunistical, taxonomical and ecological remarks are made.
