1 Palaau, Molokai 21 o N 157 o W Management Status: Open access Area Description: Agricultural area with mangrove dominated shoreline acting to consolidate sediments. Extremely broad reef flat and reef face bisected by Palaau Channel. Inner channel and fishing house reef flats fully exposed at minus low tides. Sand and fine sediments cover most of the reef flat with no live coral. Seaward through channel area small colonies of coral found. Coral cover increases seaward across reef flat, crest and reef slope. Southern exposure, sheltered. Sustenance fishing. Potential sedimentation impact.

High percentage of fine sediments with low content of terrigenous material. Gardenoseris planulata, Montipora studeri and Pavona maldivensis are found in region and are not common to sites surveyed.

Palaau 10m ranked 27 in species richness, 30 in density, 41 in biomass, and 12 in diversity. The most abundant species were the Convict tang (Acanthurus triostegus) and the Bullethead parrotfish (Chlorurus sordidus) at the 3m and 10m reefs respectively. The species with the highest biomass was the Bullethead parrotfish (Chlorurus sordidus) at both the 3m and 10m reefs respectively. No rare or unusual species observed.
