Punta Francés National Park (PFNP) is valuable for recreational SCUBA diving in Cuba and fishes play an essential role in its attractiveness to divers. Nevertheless, existing knowledge of its fish assemblage is limited. The aims of this study were (i) to update the reef fish inventory and (ii) to analyze the reef fish composition in the PFNP and adjacent area. We performed 411 transects (125 m2 each) in different coral reef habitats using diver operated stereo-video, in July and August, 2011-2014. We identified 105 species, including 11 with some level of threat. The most important reef herbivores (Scaridae) showed high species richness and abundance (8 species and 5 601 individuals). In contrast, large predators were well-represented but not abundant (e.g., 7 species and 28 individuals of the genera Epinephelus and Mycteroperca). Fish composition is indicative of a healthy reef affected by fishing pressure, and underscores the importance of more comprehensive studies of this area.
