Information is presented that was collected in 1989 on the species composition and abundance of coral reef fish within a marine reserve off Guadalcanal, Solomon Islands, and an adjacent area of fished fringing reef which possesses similar habitat characteristics but is subjected to a varying level of fishing pressure by local artisanal and subsistence fishermen. Study sites, trapping and tagging and the visual census are outlined.
