The molluscan community associated with the scleractinian coral Oculina varicosa is compared among four reef sites: inner shelf (6 m), midshelf (27 m), outer shelf (42 m), and shelf edge (80 m). Enumeration ofall the mollusks from 41 coral samples yielded 5,132 individuals and 230 species-level taxa, including 155 gastropods, 68 bivalves, 1 scaphopod, 5 polyplacophorans, and 1 cephalopod.
