This communication is the result of two parallel studies on the distribution of reef-building corals on Carysfort Reef, Key Largo and Long Key Reef, Dry Tortugas. The aim of the projects was to characterize the species composition of reef-building corals from the northern and southernmost localities of the Keys, and through comparison attempt to identify the impact of man on the reefs in the Key Largo area of the northern Florida Keys.
