Brief description
This dataset series comprises fish species composition data collected during the survey conducted jointly by the Queensland State and Commonwealth Governments during 1963-1965 to examine the prawn resources of the south-eastern corner of the Gulf of Carpentaria. Aubrey Harris retrieved the data from Rainer and Munro c.1984 - and it was used by Aubrey Harris and Ian Poiner for analysis for their paper (Harris, A. N. M. and Poiner, I. R. (1991)).Lineage
Progress Code: completed
Maintenance and Update Frequency: asNeeded
Statement: Data retrieved here was obtained for a comparison with collections from 1985-86 - so I am uncertain as to the completeness of the 1963-65 dataset.
