Global Marine Biodiversity Archive

Images of marine organisms, invertebrate and vertebrate animals, and plants, and environments, gathered in my research in the tropical Western Atlantic and tropical Pacific oceans. These are mostly underwater photographs taken as 35 mm images by me and several colleagues. Images are grouped by geographic locality, then taxonomic group. Data are provided on taxonomic identification, exact location, date, photographer, water depth, publications, and relevant information. The image displayed is a jpeg, and in addition, there is a tif file of approximately 20 MB which can be provided upon request. Contact me at david.meyer@uc.edu. Currently available images are of comatulid crinoids from 8 localities in the Tropical Western Atlantic and 8 in the Indo-West Pacific. Since there are 421 images the contents list will take a short time to appear.
