Sampling was conducted by scuba, snorkel and beach collection.In 2008, Ningaloo collections commenced from the vicinity of Tantabiddi Boat Ramp during 4-25 June (austral winter).In 2009, Ningaloo collections commenced from an area 100 km south of Exmouth, Point Cloade, during 13 May to 3 June.Variables in the dataset are: longitude and latitude, date, identifications (to genus species where possible), depth, coral reef zone, and other habitat indicators.Species collected come from the following taxonomic groups:Algae and seagrasses (phyla Chlorophyta, Ochrophyta, Rhodophyta, Magnoliophyta and Cyanobacteria)Arthropoda - Amphipods (Order: Amphipoda), Isopods (Order: Isopoda), Tanaids (Order: Tanaidacea)Bryozoans (Order: Cheilostomata)CrustaceaCnideria (Class: Anthozoa, Hydrozoa)Echinoderms (Phylum: Echinodermata)MolluscaPlatyhelminthaPolychates (Phylum: Annelida)SipunculaCollection was mainly by hand; some samples were obtained by traps, grabs, sediment pumps, hook and line, speargun.
