“…Given the great coral diversity (11 hermatypic coral species) and the widespread coral coverage (approximately 45.9 ha) of coral communities in this area, these bays have been considered an important part of the Pacific coast of Mexico (López-Pérez and Hernández-Ballesteros 2004;Tapia-García et al 2007a;López-Pérez et al 2014, 2019. This region has 2 seasons: the dry season (November-April) and the rainy season (May-October) (López-Pérez et al 2019). Wind surge occurs between October and April in the central portion of the Gulf of Tehuantepec (Trasviña et al 2003), resulting in sea surface temperatures ranging from 18 to 25 ºC, and the Costa Rica Coastal Current is dominant between May and October, resulting in sea surface temperatures exceeding 24 ºC (Fiedler andTalley 2006, Tapia-García et al 2007b).…”

“…Resultado de la alta diversidad (11 especies de corales hermatípicos) y la alta cobertura (aproximadamente 45.9 ha) de las comunidades coralinas en esta zona, estas bahías han sido consideradas un componente relevante de la costa mexicana del Pacífico (López-Pérez y Hernández-Ballesteros 2004;Tapia-García et al 2007a;López-Pérez et al 2014, 2019. Esta región presenta 2 épocas climáticas: época de secas (noviembre-abril) y época de lluvias (mayo-octubre) (López-Pérez et al 2019). De octubre a abril se presenta una surgencia eólica en la parte central del golfo de Tehuantepec (Trasviña et al 2003), lo que resulta en una variación de la temperatura superficial del agua de mar de 18 a 25 ºC, y de mayo a octubre domina la corriente costera de Costa Rica, lo cual resulta en temperaturas del agua de mar superiores a los 24 ºC (Fiedler y Talley 2006, Tapia-García et al 2007b).…”

“…La Entrega reef is habitat of several marine invertebrates, including echinoderms (López-Pérez et al, 2019). Among the echinoderm species, the sea cucumber H. (Stauropora) fuscocinerea is mainly distributed in the fore reef transition zone between the reef flat and the sandy area (transition zone A), as well as in the live coral-coral rubble (zone B) but absent in the sand area (C) (Fig.…”
