Description

This dataset comes from Bertsch & Johnson (1979) who published about the three new opisthobranch records for the Hawaiian Islands.

Through extensive collecting by subtidal SCUBA diving on the island of Oahu, several species of opisthobranch mollusks then previously unreported from the Hawaiian Islands were discovered. This dataset documents the presence of a cephalaspidean and 2 nudibranchs in several diverse, subtidal habitats on the northern and southern coasts of Oahu.

Data Records

The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 23 records.

This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.
