Atlas 32: Moser, H. G., R. L. Charter, P. E. Smith, D. A. Ambrose, S. R. Charter, C. A. Meyer, E. M. Sandknop, and W. Watson. Distributional atlas of fish larvae in the California Current region: taxa with less than 1000 total larvae, 1951-1984. Published October 1994. 23 May 2007 References to the data, published in annual ichthyoplankton data reports are given in the introduction to the Atlas. In addition, these data are available in PDF format on the SWFSC web site at http://swfsc.noaa.gov/publications/swcpub/qryPublications.asp, enter "ichthyoplankton" in the Subject line and "California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations" in the Title line. Checking the ALL YEARS button will produce the entire list of available data. The report for each year usually is published about 7-9 months after the fall cruise, and includes notes about nomenclature changes, etc. The ultimate goal is to update the old ichthyoplankton identifications to current standards; the database is updated as re-identifications for each cruise are completed.

Introduction
This atlas summarizes the spatial and temporal distributions of 122 larval fish taxa with < 1000 total larvae (summed counts per 10 m2) collected on California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations (CalCOFI) plankton survey cruises from 1951 through 1984. Atlas 31 summarized the distributions of 110 taxa with 21000 total larvae and presented background and interpretive information on the CalCOFI survey station pattern, cruise coverage, sampling and processing methods, and the CalCOFI ichthyoplankton data base (Moser et al., 1993). The two atlases provide basic information on the distribution and abundance of all taxa
represented in the current CalCOFI ichthyoplankton data base and serve as guides to users of the data base.
The CalCOFI surveys from 1951 through 1984 in the California Current region produced 3 1,214 plankton tows yielding ca. 12 million fish larvae distributed in 245 identified taxa. Larvae were identified to species or were assigned to the lowest taxon possible (genus, family, suborder, order). Data presented in this atlas represent either original identifications or new identi- fications resulting from reexamination of data and archived samples. Atlas 3 1 contained a table of ranked abundance (number per 10 mz of sea surface) of all taxa included in the 1951-1984 time series and a table of ranked occurrences for all taxa. Correction of tow data and reexamination of some taxa during the preparation of this atlas resulted in minor modification of the data base; revised tables of ranked abundance (Table 1) and ranked occurrence (Table 2) in this atlas reflect these changes. Five higher taxa (Stomiiformes, Myctophiformes, Scorpaenidae, Scombridae, Bothidae) with < 1000 total larvae consisted primarily of small damaged specimens that could not be identified further. They were not analyzed, but their distributions are represented in analyses of component taxa.
Distributions for those taxa adequately represented in the data base are summarized in a series of charts and graphs arranged on two

facing pages per taxon. The upper panel on the left page is a map of total abundance expressed as the logarithm of summed abundance (larvae per 10 m2) for all occurrences in the time series (station pattern shown in Figure 1). Distributions of some nearshore taxa are shown on enlarged maps because the abundance markers were obscured by the coastline on maps of the entire CalCOFI pattern; base maps of these enlarged regions of the survey pattern are shown in Figures 2 to 4. The lower panel is a series of four quarterly maps that show mean abundance (expressed as larvae per 10 m2) in each of 22 CalCOFI regions (Figure 5). Region 24 has an indeterminate area and in this data base is repre- sented by the stations indicated in Figure 5 . On the quarterly charts, Region 24 is shown as the area enclosed in the dashed line seaward of Regions 6 and 10. The number of station occupancies in each region for each quarter varied considerably, with marked diminution of effort in peripheral regions (Moser et al., 1993). Regions 3 and 23 were insufficiently sampled to be included in the maps of quarterly mean abundance. On these charts, regions within which no larvae of a subject taxon were captured during a quarter are indicated by a "0", and the region with the highest quarterly mean abundance is marked with a star.
Graphs summarizing interannual, seasonal and onshore-offshore occurrence and abundance of taxa with adequate representation are presented on the right-hand page of each taxon description. Calculations of seasonal and interannual mean occurrence and abundance were based on a pool of CalCOFI regions that fell within the principal distribution of the taxon of interest. This was determined by examination of all records in the time series for that taxon. Table 3 lists the pooled regions for all taxa analyzed in this atlas and in Atlas 3 1. The top-left graph gives annual mean occurrence (percent positive tows) for the selected regional pool. The top-right graph pres- ents mean annual abundance as the number of larvae per 10 m2 of surface area for all (including zeros) stations occupied in the regional pool for each year. Mean occurrence
and abundance for CalCOFI surveys in 1967 and 1968 were not included because of inadequate seasonal and areal coverage (see Table 1 in Moser et al. 1993). Missing data points on the interannual plots correspond to years when a taxon was not on the list of identifiable taxa. Also, values were not plotted for years when a taxon's selected regional pool was not sampled on CalCOFI surveys; this applies principally to 1984, when no sampling occurred south of CalCOFI line 110. The middle-left graph gives monthly mean occurrence (percent positive tows) for the regional pool and the middle-right graph gives monthly mean abundance (number per 10 m2 for all stations occupied). Onshore-offshore occurrence and abundance are shown in the bottom-left and bottom-right graphs, respectively. For these calculations the data base was partitioned into seven alongshore zones (Figure 6): Northern California (N CAL), Central California (C CAL), Southern California ( S CAL), Northern Baja California (N BAJA CAL), North-central Baja California (NC BAJA CAL), South-central Baja California (SC BAJA CAL), and Southern Baja California ( S BAJA CAL). Stations in these zones were further segregated into 14 bins based on distance from the coast (Moser et al. 1993). For each taxon one or more zones were selected from the core of their north-south range and mean occurrence (percent positive tows) and mean abundance (number per 10 m2 of surface area for all sta- tions) were calculated for each bin. These values are plotted in the graphs. Note that the labels on the x-axis refer to the offshore limit of each bin; for example, " 5 n. mi." refers to the 0-5 n. mi. bin and "10 n. mi." refers to the 5-10 n. mi. bin. Values were not plotted for onshore- offshore bins represented by less than nine tows.
Distribution summaries of taxa with very low abundance are presented in briefer formats. Beginning with Eutaeniophoridae (summed abundance of 38 larvae) only distributional maps and quarterly regional charts are presented since data were not adequate to produce graphs of mean occurrence and abundance. Taxa represented by 10 or fewer larvae do not have

quarterly regional charts: beginning with Anotopterus pharao (10 total larvae) only distributional maps are presented, with three taxa to a page.
Scientific names used in this atlas generally conform to those used in identification guides of the region (Miller and Lea, 1972; Eschmeyer et al., 1983; Matarese et al., 1989) and ordinal and family nomenclature follow Eschmeyer's (1990) classification. The taxa included in higher systematic categories (genera, families, and orders) changed during the course of the survey period because of refinements in our ability to identify larvae. These changes are documented in the series of CalCOFI ichthyoplankton data re- ports (see Moser et al., 1993) and, with other interpretive notes, are listed briefly below:
Albula spp .-- larvae probably represent a single species; however, the taxonomy of eastern Pacific albulids has not been resolved
Engraulidae-- includes nearshore taxa (mostly Anchoa spp.) large enough to distinguish from Engraulis mordax
Alepocephalidae-- these records represent probable misidentifications; however, this could not be confirmed because the specimens are missing
Bathophilus spp.-- larvae north of Punta Eugenia, Baja California are Blflemingi; larvae off southern Baja California are B. $lifer
Tactostoma macropus-- see Kawaguchi and Moser (1993) for detailed discussion of distribution and abundance of this species in the north Pacific
Evermannellidae-- larvae examined to date are Evermannella spp.; most are too small to identify to species
Aulopus spp.-- larvae represent one or more undescribed species
Notolepis risso-- identification of paralepidid taxa began in 1961; prior identifications were to family; other paralepidids in this atlas are Stemonosudis macrura, Sudis atrox, and Paralepis atlantica
Scopelarchus spp.-- identification of scopelarchid taxa began in 1972; prior identifications were to family; other scopelarchids in this atlas are Benthalbella dentata, Rosenblattichthys volucris, and Scopelarchoides nicholsi
Myctophiformes-- includes unidentifiable damaged myctophiform and aulopiform larvae
Moridae-- almost all larvae from southern Baja California are Microlepidium verecundum
Physiculus spp.-- most larvae captured in the Pacific are P. rastrelliger and most taken in the Gulf of California are P. nematopus
Carapidae-- all specimens reexamined to date are Echiodon exsilium
Antennariidae-- all specimens reexamined to date from the regular CalCOFI pattern are Antennarius avalonis
Eutaeniophoridae-- all specimens reexamined to date are Eutaeniophorus festivus
Fistulariidae-- all specimens reexamined to date are Fistularia commersoni
Syngnathus spp . --contains Cosmocampus arctus in addition to 2 or 3 Syngnathus species; the majority of specimens are Syngnathus
Hexagrammidae-- contains mostly Hexagrammus SPP.
Sebastes levis-- beginning in 1972, this and four other Sebastes ( S . aurora, S . jordani, S . macdonaldi, S. paucispinis) were identified; prior to 1972, records of S . levis are included in Sebastes spp.
ix
Blennioidek- contains so-called "northern blennioids" and "tropical blennioids" , primarily bathymasterids, stichaeids, pholids, clinids, and labrisomids that could not be identified to family (usually because of damaged condition)
Semicossyphus pulcher-- identification of labrid taxa began in 1961; prior identifications were to family
Priacanthidae-- four species occur in the CalCOFI area; the larva shown on page 176 is Pristigenys serrula; after the maps were completed, another specimen, possibly Heteropriacanthus cruentatus, was identified at station 130.50 from CalCOFI survey 7207
Cheilotrema saturnurn-- identification of sciaenid taxa began in 1981; prior identifications were to family; other sciaenids in this atlas are Atractoscion nobilis and Roncador stearnsii
Sparidae-- all specimens reexamined to date are Calamus brachysomus
Gempylidae-- most specimens examined to date are Gempylus serpens and Diplospinus multistriatus
Euthynnus spp.-- all larvae examined in CalCOFI collections are E. lineatus
Scomberomorus spp.-- all larvae probably are S. sierra
Thunnus albacares-- larvae of Thunnus obesus and T. albacares may be indistinguishable
Nomeidae-- identification of nomeid taxa began in 1972; prior identifications were to family; in this atlas the Nomeidae category includes records of all taxa prior to 1972; other nomeid taxa in this atlas are Cubiceps caeruleus, C. pauciradiatus, Psenes pellucidus, and P . si0
previously were identified as Clinidae or occasionally as Blennioidei; larval Ruthbunella were collected primarily at inshore stations off southern California in winter and spring
Bothus spp.-- all specimens reexamined to date appear to be one species; the correct name for the common Bothus species in the eastern tropical Pacific is B. leopardinus (R. Lavenberg, pers. c o r n . )
Citharichthysplatophrys-- during the preparation of the data base, all Citharichthys larvae from surveys in 1954-1960 and 1984 were reexamined and identified to species; records of C. platophrys in this atlas represent only those years
Etropus spp.-- larvae of Etropus are similar to those of Citharichthys and were not separated from them by the original identifiers; during the preparation of the data base all Citharichthys larvae (including Etropus spp .) from surveys in 1954-1960 and 1984 were reexamined and reidentified; records of Etropus spp. in this atlas represent only those years
Atlas 31 and 32 represent a stage in the development of the CalCOFI ichthyoplankton data base indicative of identification competence over the first three decades of the program. During the past several years the Systematics and Ecology of Fishes group at the Southwest Fisheries Science Center has been preparing an identification guide to the early life history stages of fish taxa collected on CalCOFI surveys from 1951 to the present. This has greatly improved our ability to identify CalCOFI fish eggs and larvae and these advances will be applied in the future when we identify cruises conducted since 1984 and as we examine historical samples to refine identifications within large taxonomic categories.
Bathymasteridae-- most are Rathbunella spp. ; these were not recognized until recently and

These maps a r e designed to show essential details of the a rea most intensively studied by the California Cooperative Oceanic Fisher ies Investigations. This i s approximately the same a r e a as is shown in color on the front cover. Geographical place names a r e those most commonly used in the various publications emerging from the re- search. The cardinal station lines extending southwestward from the coast a r e shown. Additional lines a r e uti- lized a s needed and can be a s closely spaced a s 12 miles apart and s t i l l have individual numbers. The stations along the lines a r e num- bered with respect to the station 60 line, the numbers increasing to the west and decreasing to the east. Most of them a r e 40 miles apart, and a r e numbered in groups of 10. This permits adding stations a s close a s 4 miles apart a s needed. An example of the usual identifica- tion i s 120.65. This station i s on line 120, 20 nautical miles south- west of station 60.
The projection of the front cover is Lambert 's Azimuthal Equal Area Projection.
They a r e 120 miles apart.
The detail maps a r e a Mercator projection.
