Full description
This dataset contains the results from tagging experiments of the western rock lobster Panulirus cygnus George, at 7 mile beach (Geraldton area), Western Australia, between September 1984 and November 1985. The tracking area was made up of limestone patch reefs, 47.6% Amphibolis, 27.6% Heterozostera/Halophila, and 24.8% sand. Foraging patterns of juvenile lobsters were investigated and 40 rock lobsters were tagged and using electromagnetic tracking, their overnight movements were determined.Lineage
