1st Annual REEF Curacao Lionfish Expedition in September 2013
Curacao Lionfish Control Study
August 31st – September 7th, 2013
This annual project is documenting the establishment and consequences of invasive lionfish as part of REEF’s ongoing effort to minimize the Indo-Pacific predator’s impact on native fish populations. The team will have an opportunity to be trained in lionfish collection and dissections of specimens to document prey. Indo-pacific Red Lionfish (Pterois volitans) have been documented along the entire US East Coast from Florida through Massachusetts, east to Bermuda and south throughout the Caribbean. The expansion has been extremely rapid and exponential in scope.1st Annual CURACAO Lionfish Expedition hosted by GO WEST Diving & the Sandton Kura Hulanda Hotel co-hosted by Lad Akins (REEF Director of Special Projects) and Peter A. Hughes
