MIDWAY DIVE SITES
Midway’s normal diving season extends from May through September, although shore dives may be done under the piers throughout the year.The best
CORAL INDEX
There are about 70 species of stony or reef-building corals recorded at normal diving depths in Hawai'i to date. It can be difficult to identify some species with certainty, especially underwater, without examining the skeletal structure of the calices (cups inhabited byindividual polyps).
INVASIVE MARINE SPECIES Invasive species are a serious problem around the world. Many are introduced to an area where natural population controls are absent.MIDWAY WRECKS
F4U CORSAIR AIRPLANE WRECK 116 feet Advanced. Inverted fuselage and wings of a U.S. Navy fighter that collided in mid-air during a training mission in 1943. It rests upon a sandy bottom 200 feet west of a mooring and underwater telephone cable, making this an advanced dive with limited bottom time. ENDANGERED HAWAIIAN PLANTS Approximately 1000 species of flowering plants are native to the Hawaiian Islands, 89% of which are endemic to the region.Many of Hawaii's endemic plants have been driven to extinction due to a number of human-induced forces including deforestation, urbanization, agriculture, ranching, over-harvesting, alien species, and disease. CAULIFLOWER CORALS, FAMILY POCILLOPORIDAE Family Pocilloporidae. Cauliflower, Lace, & Antler Corals. These coral have rough, solid skeletons pitted by tiny calices. They inhabit areas exposed to surf, surge, or current. Colony shape varies considerably according to physical factors and can be difficult to identify in somesituations.
SCORPIONFISHES & ROCKFISHES, FAMILY SCORPAENIDAE Family Scorpaenidae. Scorpionfishes & Rockfishes. Scorpionfishes have venomous fin spines capable of inflicting serious or fatal wounds. Fortunately the most dangerous species do not occur in Hawaii and injuries can be avoided by not standing on or touching the reef. Injuries should be treated quickly by soaking the affected area in hotwater.
HAWAII'S DEEP SEVEN BOTTOMFISH SPECIES Commercially-important bottomfishes that inhabit deep reefs from 200 to 1000 feet captured using handlines. Hawaiian stocks are depleted due to overfishing, therefore seasonal closures have been implemented based on scientific recommendations. HAWAIIAN HOGFISH, BODIANUS ALBOTAENIATUS A robust wrasse seen on reefs at scuba depths. Females are fairly common but males are rare, and tiny juveniles are seen during springand early summer.

------------------------- -------------------------INTRODUCTION
Aloha and thank you for visiting. I love scuba diving, fish watching, underwater photography, plants & flowers, and sharing discoveries of God's creation with you. My goal as marine educator and photographer is to promote awareness, appreciation, conservation, and respect for our world and its inhabitants. We must all take an active role in preserving the earth's resources for tomorrow.USING THIS SITE
Access each group with the icons below the banner above. Groups are further divided by family, phylum, or logical unit. Each unit page lists species by geographic region starting with Hawaii as default. Each region's most common species are shown first along with similar ones for comparison. Individual species pages may be accessed by clicking the image below its scientific name (yellow italic). COMMON & SCIENTIFIC NAMES Common names are important but of limited usefulness as they can be created, modified, and changed by anyone. It is not unusual for a common name to be used for entirely different species in different parts of the world or for a single species to have a multitude of common names. Effort has been made to choose a US English common name (bold white) prevalent in Hawaii or the host country along with a local name if appropriate. In the case where no such common name exists, I have taken the liberty of creating one based on descriptive characteristics or a translation of the scientific name. In order to reduce confusion it is necessary to refer to each species using itsscientific name.
The scientific name is generally accepted worldwide by professionals of any nation. In general the accepted scientific name is the oldest known recorded description of a given species found in scientific literature. Many of the names are based on Latin or Greek. It is important to note that ongoing research often results in changes to currently 'accepted' scientific names. Examples include the discovery of an older description, the reassignment of one species as a variety of another (lumping, with the stricken name becoming a synonym), splitting of a single species into two or more distinct species (splitting), or the promotion or demotion of a genus or subgenus. Name changes can lead to confusion as print references age and name changes take place. Certain researchers have a propensity to split or lump species to excess only making the situation worse. This situation is particularly bad among seashells and herein I have chosen to keep things simple by refraining from promoting subgenera to full generic status.SALES
In addition to stock photography we sell prints on photo paper, canvas, metal, and gift items. UPDATES & CONTRIBUTIONS Updates are made regularly as our collection continues to grow. You may contribute images & species of interest to expand our library. If deemed relevant, your photos will be cropped to 300 pixels wide (high if vertical) to best illustrate the subject. Your name will be watermarked at the bottom. These images will not be sold or released to a third party, however please remember that everything on this site is public domain, on display free-of-charge, and copying without permission is an assumed risk. These photos are too small to yield an acceptable print and I discard your original submissions once the web image is complete.DISCLAIMER
The purpose of this website is education and stock photography sales. I do not sell fish, shells, plants, or specimens of any kind.Details
