“…The park's coral reefs are home of a great variety of marine life, including more than 700 species of fish, more than 200 species of mollusks, and 11 species of sharks. Additionally, the park is considered one of the most important nesting sites for the hawksbill turtle, which is an endangered species [16].…”

The Port of Veracruz, Mexico was artificially built at the beginning of the 21st century, dredging the sea floor and removing reefs to allow the entry of large ships, which led to a growth in the traffic of goods and people through it, making it the largest commercial port in all of Mexico. In 1992 the Government of Mexico decreed the area of coastal reefs near the Port of Veracruz as a protected natural area with the name of the Parque Nacional Sistema Arrecifal Veracruzano (PSNSAV). In 2013, with the demand of international trade, the decision was made to expand the port, generating job growth in the area and an increase in the flow of containers and automobiles, also have a greater capacity to transport cereals, minerals and fuels. In contrast to the disagreements of the society due to the loss of protected space, the Parks polygon had to be modified. This work try to demonstrated that the construction of the port expansion began previous the presentation to the environmental authorities of the Environmental Impact Statement and the change in the protected limits with the disappearance of the Punta Gorda reefs and the dredging of Vergara Bay for the arrival of deep draft vessels. Through a systematic mapping of the scientific literature combined with satellite mapping and visual interpretation of images, and documentary analysis, we determined the damage to the reef system, which has protected species according to Mexican national regulations.

“…Se espera que nuevas investigaciones continúen añadiendo más registros para la zona norte del CASGM. Ejemplos del incremento en el conocimiento de la ictiofauna del CASGM son los estudios realizados en la zona centro conocida como Sistema Arrecifal Veracruzano donde la última actualización incrementó de 387 especies (Del Moral-Flores et al, 2013) a 472 especies (Robertson et al, 2019), y actualmente se ha continuado añadiendo nuevos registros (Argüelles-Jiménez et al, 2021;Del Moral-Flores et al, 2020), algunos de los cuales son especies cripticas. Por lo tanto, es importante incrementar el esfuerzo de muestreo dirigido hacia especies de hábitos nocturnos, así como especies cripticas, de esta manera se podrá reducir vacíos de información, por ejemplo, para los arrecifes sumergidos de la zona norte del CASGM se tiene una lista preliminar de 151 especies (Ortiz-Lozano et al, 2021) que se espera incremente con estudios posteriores.…”

El presente estudio reporta por primera vez la presencia del pez ardilla Sargocentron coruscum para el suroeste del golfo de México. El avistamiento se realizó en el arrecife Lobos durante un muestreo nocturno en la pendiente de sotavento a 3 m de profundidad. Se observó un individuo de aproximadamente 15 cm entre oquedades de rocas coralinas. Este registro amplía el ámbito de distribución de S. coruscum para el suroeste del golfo de México e incrementa el conocimiento de la riqueza ictiológica de la región, la cual continua en ascenso con nuevos hallazgos en los últimos años.

Based on several in situ observations, the species Ptereleotris calliura (family Gobiidae) and Liopropoma rubre (family Serranidae) are added to the taxonomic fish inventory of the Veracruz Reef System, Veracruz, Mexico. While P. calliura was found on sandy substratum in a coral reef lagoon, L. rubre was detected on a reef slope. With the addition of these 2 species, the checklist of reef fishes in the Veracruz Reef System is expanded to 479 species. Given these findings, we predict that additional survey efforts (beyond visual transects) will reveal more previously unrecorded species of cryptic fishes in the Veracruz reef system.
