Abstract
Analyses of the macro-biota and the hydrology of Christmas, Drum, and Bastrop Bays, Brazoria County, Texas were based on data collected between October 1971 and October 1973. Trawls, seines, push nets, and a dredge were used to collect faunal samples. Vegetation was identified and mapped. Results of this study will be used to help manage Texas estuaries and fisheries.
