Multispecies larval otolith increment data from samples collected on R/V F.G. Walton Smith cruises WS0714, WS0720, WS0809 in the Straits of Florida from 2007-2008 (FK Population Connectivity project)

<p>Otolith increment data from five species of coral reef fish collected in the Straits of Florida as 1) larvae in the plankton inside and outside of mesoscales eddies, 2) late-stage larvae over reefs, and 3) juveniles in reef and rubble habitats.</p>
