Abstract

Fishes were sampled by seine and beam trawl over tidal and diel cycles on a sandy beach on the west coast of Scotland in June and August. Species composition of the catches of the 2 gear types differed. There was a significant positive relationship between depth (0 to 5 m) and species richness but a few species were restricted to depths of
