The California Channel Islands. 118° 117c Methods The eight Channel Islands off the southern California coast have been surveyed annually since 1980 in cooperative studies by the Channel Islands National Park (CINP) kelp forest monitoring program or the Channel Islands Research Program (CIRP) through support from the Tatman Foundation. CINP divers regularly mon- itor 16 fixed sites as part of the kelp forest monitoring program and population dynamics of invertebrate, algal, and fish species are measured. Fishes are quan- tified in visual transects and Roving Diver Fish Counts twice each year on dif- ferent dates (Davis et al. 1999). CIRP divers use Roving Dive Fish Counts, gen- eral surveys and species lists at a broader spectrum of sites to provide an overview of the island ecosystems. Both programs use a general search method to note species in the field, often with several divers contributing. Unusual fishes were observed by multiple divers and photographed whenever possible. Collections were not made. Roving diver fish counts were developed as a standard means of quantifying relative abundance of fish species.

La Jolla Canyon, California (Lea and Rosenblatt 2000). Remarks.—A single pink cardinalfish, Apogon pacificus, was observed and pho- tographed (R. Herrmann, D. Richards) (Fig. 2) on 13 September 1998 in Bat Ray Cove on the southeast tip of San Clemente Island (32°' N, 118° ' W)..
