Abstract

BUSTOS-MONTES, Diana et al. A RECORD OF AN ADULT WARSAW GROUPER, HYPORTHODUS NIGRITUS (PERCIFORMES: EPHINEPHELIDAE), IN A DEEP REEF OF THE COLOMBIAN CARIBBEAN. Bol. Invest. Mar. Cost. [online]. 2013, vol.42, n.2, pp.413-419. ISSN 0122-9761.

The Warsaw grouper (Hyporthodus nigritus) has been reported from the western Atlantic between Massachusetts (United States) and Mexico, including a few South American reports to Brasil. In Colombia a juvenile specimen was reported from nearby Cartagena in 2003. Herein, we report an adult fish caught near to deep-water reefs in the Golfo de Morrosquillo, Colombian Caribbean.

Keywords : Hyporthodus nigritus; Warsaw grouper; deep-water reefs; Colombian Caribbean.
