RESUMEN.La Isla Isabel es un Parque Nacional localizado en el noroeste de México, cuya área marina no está protegida y la pesca artesanal está permitida, aunque los impactos de esta actividad sobre el ecosistema y los recursos naturales explotados no han sido evaluados. De mayo 2013 a abril 2014 se monitoreó mensualmente diferentes campos pesqueros de la Isla Isabel. Los artes de pesca más utilizados fueron la red de enmalle (96,4%), la línea de mano (2,1%) y la cimbra (1,5%), capturándose 2.388 ejemplares pertenecientes a 19 familias, 33 géneros y 46 especies. Las especies mejor representadas en las capturas fueron Lutjanus peru (%IIR = 55,34), L. guttatus (%IIR = 16,01), L. argentiventris (%IIR = 11,53), Cynoscion reticulatus (%IIR = 3,23) y Hoplopagrus guentherii (%IIR = 3,02), representando 89,13% de la captura total. La diversidad fue baja (H' = 2,01), dominada por pocas especies (J' = 0,52), principalmente pargos (Lutjanidae).

Ichthyofauna catch composition in a small-scale fishery from Isabel Island (southeastern Gulf of California), MexicoABSTRACT. Isabel Island is a National Park located in the northwest Mexico with an unprotected marine area, where the small-scale fishing is allowed. The impact of this activity in the ecosystem and exploited biological resources has not been evaluated. From May 2013 to April 2014 the fishing grounds of Isabel Island were monthly monitored. The most widely used fishing gears were the gillnet (96.4%), hook-and-line (2.1%) and long-line (1.5%). A total 2,388 specimens were caught, corresponding to 19 families, 33 genera, and 46 species. The most frequent species caught were Lutjanus peru (%IRI = 55.34), L. guttatus (%IRI = 16.01), L. argentiventris (%IRI = 11.53), Cynoscion reticulatus (%IRI = 3.23) and Hoplopagrus guentherii (%IRI = 3.02), representing 89.13% of the total catch. The diversity was low (H' = 2.01), dominated by few species (J' = 0.52), mainly snappers (Lutjanidae).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
