A total of 15 reefs from seven Natural Reserves were included in the 2008 national coral reef monitoring program of Puerto Rico. These included reef sites at Isla Desecheo, Isla de Mona, Rincon, Mayaguéz, Guánica, Isla Caja de Muerto and Ponce. At each reef, quantitative measurements of the percent substrate cover by sessile-benthic categories and visual surveys of species richness and abundance of fishes and motile megabenthic invertebrates were performed along sets of five permanent transects. Time series analyses of the biological monitoring data was performed to examine trends in the community structure of reef systems.
