description Coral reef condition north of the Havanan provinces (NW Cuba), an area with variable influence from human settlements and runoff, was assessed using the AGRRA methodology’s benthic biological indicators: live coral cover, coral density, maximum colony diameter, old and recent coral mortality, coral recruitment, Diadema antillarum density, and macroalgae cover. Coral communities at 11 reef crest and 22 forereef sites were sampled during 2004. The Shannon heterogenety and Pielou evenness indices were calculated. A total of 33 species of coral, larger than 10 cm in maximum diameter, were identified. The biological indicators analyzed showed significant differences among sites, which suggest a marked heterogeneity in environmental conditions along the study area. The average live coral cover was 28% on crests, and 21% on forereefs. The average densities were 9 colonies/10 m in crests, and 12 colonies/10 m in the deeper sites. Little recent mortality and low diseased coral percentages were observed. Old mortality is apparently due to the historical accumulation of both natural and anthropogenic effects. Reefs were also perturbed by considerable fleshy macroalgal cover, apparently a consequence of both excess of nutrients and insufficient herbivory. Reefs in good condition were found possibly due to some level of heterotophy from organic matter enrichment derived from land sources.

Se muestrearon las comunidades de corales de 11 sitios de crestas arrecifales y 22 de arrecifes frontales durante el año 2004. Se calcularon los índices de heterogeneidad de Shannon y de equitatividad de Pielou. Se identificaron 33 especies de corales (mayores de 10). Hubo diferencias significativas entre sitios en los indicadores biológicos analizados que sugieren una marcada heterogeneidad en las condiciones medioambientales a lo largo de la zona de estudio. El cubrimiento medio de coral vivo en las crestas fue de 28% y en los arrecifes frontales, de 21%. La densidad media en las crestas fue de 9 colonias/10 m, mientras que en los arrecifes más profundos, 12 colonias/10 m. Se observaron poca mortalidad reciente y bajos porcentajes de corales enfermos. La mortalidad antigua se debe aparentemente a la acumulación histórica de afectaciones, tanto naturales como antrópicas. Los arrecifes estuvieron perturbados además por cubrimientos significativos de macroalgas carnosas aparentemente causados por una combinación de exceso de nutrientes e insuficiente herbivorismo. Se encontraron arrecifes en buenas condiciones posiblemente dado por cierto nivel de heterotrofía favorecido por enriquecimiento de materia orgánica particulada proveniente de  tierra.Avaliou-se a condição dos recifes de coral do norte das províncias havanesas (NW Cuba), área com influência variável de assentamentos humanos e de aporte terrígeno, com a aplicação de indicadores biológicos dos bentos da metodologia AGRRA: cobrimento vivo de coral; densidade, diâmetro máximo, mortalidade recente e antiga, e recrutamento de corais duros; densidade de ouriços Diadema antillarum; e cobrimento por macroalgas. Amostraram-se as comunidades de corais de 11 lugares de cristas recifosas e 22 de recifes frontais durante o ano 2004.

Houve diferenças significativas entre lugares nos indicadores biológicos analisados que sugerem uma marcada heterogeneidade nas condições meio-ambientais ao longo da zona de estudo. O cobrimento médio de coral vivo nas cristas foi de 28% e nos recifes frontais de 21%. A densidade média nas cristas foi de 9 colônias/10 m, enquanto nos recifes mais profundos, 12 colônias/10 m. Observaram-se pouca mortalidade recente e baixas porcentagens de corais doentes. A mortalidade antiga deve-se aparentemente à acumulação histórica de afetações, tanto naturais como antrópicas. Os recifes foram alterados por cobrimentos significativos de macroalgas carnosas aparentemente causados por uma combinação de excesso de nutrientes e insuficiente herbivorismo.
