This dataset includes dates, locations, and biological information (e.g. length) of all lionfish (Pterois volitans) that were observed during field studies at coral reefs near Little Cayman Island, Cayman Islands during the summer of 2011. This dataset includes both lionfish that were sighted (but not handled) and those that were collected.
For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'. The most current version of this dataset is available at: https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/3988
