The reef fish samples were collected over a 4 year period from 2008 to 2012 from the main Hawaiian Islands. Species of lanternfish and dragonfish were grouped as mesopelagics, as they were collected using midwater trawling equipment (see Choy et al. 2012 PLoS ONE 7(11): e50133. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0050133 for detailed collection methods), or dipnets in the open ocean. Finally, large, open-ocean predator species were collected at sea by trained longline fishery observers of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Pacific Islands Regional Observer Program during the years 2009-2011 in the central North Pacific Subtropical Gyre.
