Abstract Comparisons were made between fish faunas recovered from entire excavation units and sorted in the field by the excavators and fish faunas from column samples recovered in the same units and examined in the laboratory with the aid of a microscope. The results indicated that the smaller column samples provided adequate control for defining the number of species utilized and often surpassed the whole unit analyses by showing the presence of smaller individuals of species not recovered from the larger units. Microscopic examination of small samples appears to provide a much needed addition to the commonly utilized methods of sampling fish faunas.
