Table 31. Total numbers of fishes per trawl sample taken at permanent stations in the 

 Apalachicola estuary (3/72-7/80), the Econfina estuary (6/71-5/79), and the Fenhollowav 

 estuary (6/71-5/79). Numbers per trawl are averaged over the entire period of study 

 with percentages of the total number of fishes taken indicated by brackets. The 25 

 numerically dominant species in each estuary were used for the analysis. Sciaenids are 

 marked with asterisks (from Livingston I'^sib).
