The first curve (Text-fig. 5A) levels off in a series of stepped plateaus. The steps appear to correspond with reef trends and are best developed for localities within the three younger trends. This result indicates that the species that lived within each reef trend are more or less adequately sampled. On the other hand, the second curve (Text-fig. 58) levels off at between 10 to 15 localities, again indicating that the sampled localities adequately estimate species richness. Of the 82 identified species, 49 are living, and 33 are extinct (Table 4). The 49 living species represent of the 60 hermatypic species in the Caribbean today (Budd et 1994a).
