The mobile invertebrate and fish biodiversity of the 50,000 km² area of the Torres Strait Protected Zone and adjacent shelf seabed was sampled by a 1 km tow of a 8 fthm otter trawl (single high-flying Florida Flyer) at 148 sites, representing a wide range of known physical environments, during one 1-month-long voyage on the QDPIF vessel Gwendoline May. About 1,550 species/species-equivalent OTUs (operational taxonomic units) were identified. The dataset comprises 11,325 site-by-species records.
