MOVEMENT PATTERNS OF BONEFISH, 

 ALBULA VULPES, IN BAHAMIAN WATERS 



The regular daily movement patterns of fishes 

 appear closely related to predictable changes in 

 their environment. Factors such as tidal fluctua- 

 tions (Dodson and Leggett 1973; Stasko et al. 

 1973), light levels (Yuen 1970; Collette and 

 Talbot 1972; Standora et al. 1972; McFarland et 

 al. 1979), and temperature (Coutant 1975; Kelso 

 1976; Haynes et al. 1978; Langford et al. 1979) 

 have been found to influence the cyclic move- 

 ment of fishes. Until recently, most information 

 on such movement patterns has been obtained 

 primarily through direct observation. However, 

 there are many situations in which direct visual 

 methods are not feasible. An alternate means of 

 obtaining such information has been provided by 

 recent advances in the use of ultrasonic telem- 

 etry as a research tool. 



Ultrasonic telemetry has become a valuable 

 technique both in freshwater and deep marine 

 environments. However, the use of ultrasonics in 

 coastal waters is still in the early developmental 

 stages. Rapid signal attenuation occurs under 

 such conditions because of combined effects of 

 the high conductivity of the water, vegetative 

 growth, turbulence, and bottom reflection 

 (Stasko and Pincock 1977). 



This research attempted to use ultrasonics to 

 determine movements and daily activity pat- 

 terns of the bonefish, Albula vulpes, in Bahamian 

 waters. The only prior attempt at scientifically 

 studying bonefish movements in the western 

 Atlantic region was by Bruger, 1 who initiated a
