The database is sampling results of fish fauna in highly urbanized river (Tsurumi River Basin, Kanagawa, Japan)Sampling Description
Study Extent
The investigation of fish fauna was conducted at 71 stations in the Tsurumi River basin (Fig. 1), mainly in environmentally degraded tributaries where data on fish fauna has not yet been collected. The survey was conducted during summer (August 20 to October 5, 2021) and winter (December 28 to February 8, 2022).Sampling
The fish survey was conducted using a pulsed DC Smith-Root Model LR-24 backpack electrofisher (Smith-Root Inc., Vancouver, WA, U.S.A.) at each habitat (rapid, run, pool, glide, slack, and backwater) of the 71 stations.Method steps
- We recorded occurrence data, which were identified on-site and in the laboratory according to Kawanabe and Mizuno (1989) and Seno (2007).

Geographic Coverages
The Tsurumi River, which flows through Tokyo and Kanagawa prefectures in Japan, has been urbanized since the 1950s, and 85% of the river basin is now comprises urban areas. This data reports the results of a survey of the fish fauna of a tributary river for which information is lacking.
