Abstract
    This paper provides a checklist of the 195 species of coral reef fish observed in Diani Lagoon between April 1990 and November 1991, and the 203 species observed in Galu Lagoon between October 1991 and March 1994. Community structure, species richness and relative abundances were similar between Diani and Galu. A comparison of species richness reported here with that of 1971 suggests diversity has been maintained, and is of much the same composition as it was over twenty years ago.
