MonitoringLocationDescriptionText | This site is on the northwest side of Amchitka Island, in Ogala Pass near AKALE07-0006. It was within an Alaria fistulosa bed. The depth at this site was 33 ft. on a coarse substrate of bedrock and some boulders, mostly encrusted with coralline alga (Lithothamnion sp. and Clathromorphum nereostratum). Bottom temperature was 5 C. Visibility was approximately 50 ft. There was no current or swell. The dominant algae, other than encrusting coralline, included Desmarestia viridis, Alaria fistulosa, and a leathery red. Fauna were dominated mainly by small (some large) Strongylocentrotus sp., Tonicella stelleri and Ophiopholis aculeata. Fish taken (5) included 1 female rock greenling (Hexagrammos lagocephalus), 2 dusky rockfish (Sebastes ciliatus) and 2 yellow Irish lord (Hemilepidotus jordani). |
