Examples of species of invertebrates and cryptic fish found on Victorian subtidalreefs. 4Figure 1.3. Examples of fish species found on Victorian subtidal reefs. 5Figure 1.4. An example plot depicting change in an environmental, population or communityvariable over time (days, months or years) and potential patterns from isolatedobservations. 7Figure 1.5. Previous marine protected areas at Wilsons Promontory (1986-2002): (blue)Wilsons Promontory Marine Park; (pink) Western and Eastern Protection Zones;and (yellow) Wilsons Promontory Marine Reserve. The southern, eastern andisland boundaries are not to scale, being only 300 m from the shore (exaggeratedhere for clarity). 10Figure 1.6. Wilsons Promontory marine protected areas: Wilsons Promontory MarineNational Park; Wilsons Promontory Marine Park and Wilsons Promontory MarineReserve. 11Figure 2.1. Location of monitoring sites at Wilsons Promontory. The Wilsons PromontoryMarine National Park boundary is outlined in grey. Core monitoring sites aremarked in red. 13Figure 2.2 School of butterfly perch Caesioperca lepidoptera at East Landing, WilsonsPromontory. 14Figure 2.3 Biologist-diver with transect line. 18Figure 2.4 The cover of macrophytes is measured by the number of points intersecting eachspecies on the quadrat grid. 19Figure 3.1.
