Abstract: The article reports on the assessment of ichthyofaunal assemblages within the mangal of the Belize offshore cays. In this study, nine sampling gears were instituted in pre-defined micro-habitats which include internal creeks, ponds, and sinkholes. It was found that ichthyological species inventories for the mangal are commonly underestimates.
