The dataset of the Museo de Ciencias Naturales of the Universidad Simon Bolivar contains 3 groups of sub-datasets from different projects carried out in the Venezuelan Caribbean and Atlantic front since 2000. Most of the registers come from two localities, the Morrocoy National Park in the central-west of Venezuela, and the east upwelling zone. Most represented groups are peracarid crustaceans and gastropods among other invertebrates.
