Data from: Genetic connectivity of Lionfish (Pterois volitans) in marine protected areas of the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea

<p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>Lionfish (<i>Pterois volitans</i>) have rapidly invaded the tropical Atlantic and spread across the wider Caribbean in a relatively short period of time. Because of its high invasion capacity, we used it as a model to identify the connectivity among nine marine protected areas (MPAs) situated in four countries in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea.<span class="MsoBookTitle"><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>This study provides evidence of local genetic differentiation of <i>P. volitans</i>in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span>A total of 475 lionfi</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>s</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>h samples were characterized with 12 microsatellites, with 6 to 20 alleles per locus. Departures from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) were found in 10 of the 12 loci, all caused by heterozygous excess. Moderate genetic differentiation was observed between Chiriviche, Venezuela and Xcalak , México localities (F<sub>ST</sub>= 0.012), and between the Los Roques and Veracruz (F<sub>ST</sub>= 0.074) sites. STRUCTURE analysis found that four genetic entities best fit our data. A unique genetic group in the Gulf of Mexico may imply that the lionfish invasion unfolded both in a counter-clockwise manner in the Gulf of Mexico<span><span>.</span></span>In spite of thenotable dispersion of <i>P. volitans</i>, our results show some genetic structure, as do other noninvasive Caribbean fish species, suggesting that the connectivity in some MPAs analyzed in the Caribbean is limited and caused by only a few source individuals with subsequent genetic drift leading to local genetic differentiation. This indicates that <i>P. volitans</i>dispersion could be caused by mesoscale phenomena, which produce stochastic connectivity pulses. Due to the isolation of some MPAs from others, these findings may hold a promise for local short-term control of by means of intensive fishing, even in MPAs, and may have regional long-term effects.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p>

Avian point count data from riparian corridors of protected areas in Marin County California

<p>The data set is a simplified version of avian point count data collected in Marin County, CA, USA between 1997 and 2019. Point count surveys (5 minutes) were conducted twice during the breeding season (May and June) along transects in riparian corridors within protected areas (Point Reyes National Seashore, Golden Gate National Recreation Area, Mount Tamalpais State Park, and Bolinas Lagoon Open Space Preserve). Data were collected by Point Blue Conservation Science biologists and were integrated into the National Park Service Inventory and Monitoring Program. All individuals detected at any distance were recorded during the surveys, but this simplified data set only includes the observations analyzed for this publication, specifically detections (aurally and visually) within 50 meters of each point count station for each of the fourteen species selected for analysis.</p>
