This report documents the August 1994 monitoring of benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages in the Port Everglades Southport turning basin vicinity and adjacent areas of John U. Lloyd State Recreation Area. This is the seventh monitoring effort of the series carried out by Nova Southeastern University Oceanographic Center. Grab samples were taken chiefly during the first two weeks of August. Hand collections and most crab survey stations were delayed until the first half of September (with three crab stations taken on 5 October). This is an interim report. Nemertine and annelid worms and a few groups of crustaceans have not yet been returned with identifications by consultants.
