Abstract

The aim of this study is to update the list of spiny lobsters in the Abrolhos Archipelago. The data were obtained by scuba diving during diurnal (8am to 5pm) and nocturnal (7pm to 11pm) visual censuses, from 2 to 12 meters depth. This work presents the first record of Panulirus laevicauda on the Abrolhos Archipelago, confirm the previous unique record of Panulirus echinatus and reinforce the occurrence of Panulirus argus. All the spiny lobster species of the genus Panulirus registered in the Brazilian coast are now registered for the Abrolhos National Marine Park reinforcing the importance of this marine protected area.
