We describe a multispecies, multiscale analysis of spatial pattern, called a 'Community Mosaic Analysis', and apply the technique to 2 shallow-water gorgonian communities in Puerto Rico. Spatial patterns were simdar at both sites examined. Gorgonian colonies occurred at predominant mosaic scales (patch sizes) of about Yi and 2 m2 Gorgonian species were positively associated (cooccurred) at these and all smaller (< l m2) spatial scales investigated. These results indicate that gorgonian species are affected similarly by small-scale features of their habitat. No instances of significant negative associations among species were noted, suggesting that competition for spatial resources does not play a dominant role in the ecology of shallow-water gorgonian communities.
