The Experimental Oculina Research Reserve preserves the Oculina Banks, a reef of ivory bush coral (''Oculina varicosa'') off the coast of Fort Pierce, Florida. ''Oculina varicosa'' is a U.S. National Marine Fisheries Service species of concern.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Proactive Conservation Program: Species of Concern )〕 Species of concern are those species about which the U.S. Government’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Marine Fisheries Service, has some concerns regarding status and threats, but for which insufficient information is available to indicate a need to list the species under the U.S. (Endangered Species Act ) (ESA). == Location == In 1984, a 92 square-nautical-mile (316 km2) portion of these reefs was designated the Oculina Habitat Area of Particular Concern. In 1994, the area was closed to all manner of bottom fishing and was redesignated a research reserve. In 2000, the marine protected area was expanded to 300 square nautical miles (1,030 km2) and prohibited all gears that caused mechanical disruption to the habitat.
