HASTINGS ET AL.: FISH FAUNA ASSOCIATED WITH OFFSHORE PLATFORMS 



ter Panama City Laboratory, National Marine 

 Fisheries Service, NOAA, for allowing us to use 

 vessels from his laboratory in making some of our 

 dives at the stages. He and Ralph W. Yerger of 

 Florida State University read and criticized the 

 original manuscript. Hastings was partially sup- 

 ported during this study by a grant from the Sport 

 Fishing Institute to Florida State University.
