Descripción:The Majagual patch reef was surveyed 13 days after the indirect effects of hurricane Mítch with I m2 quadrants and rapid assesment techniques. In comparison with an earHer survey in the Xahuayxol reef, live coral cover was low (11.5% ± 5.2), whereas ¡he cover of filamentous seaweed and old dead coral was high (53.7 % ±27.7 in bath of them). The coral community disturbance may have began several years ago, and low algal turf growth suggests indirect effects of hurricane Miteh, because of the surge suspended sedirnents. Frequeney of Faviafragum (Esper) and encrusting coralline algae encounters was higher than for other coral/alga pillrs; this suggest a possible effeet specificity.
