At present the diversity of organisms associated with reef environments is threatened. This study aimed to record the number of families and species of reef fish fauna of the north coast of the state of Santa Catarina. The data were collected through underwater visual census performed on Graças archipelago (26°12'S /48º29'W), Tamboretes archipelago (26°22'S/48°31'W) and Barra do Sul islands (26°27'S/48º35'W). A total of 166 species was observed (6 elasmobranchii and 160 actinopterygii) belonging to 66 families. The families with more species richness were Carangidae (16), Epinephelidae (9), Blenidae (8), Serranidae (7), Haemulidae (6), Sparidae (6) Tetraodontidae (6), Labridae-Scarini (5), Labrisomidae (5) Pomacentridae (5), Lutjanidae (5) and Muraenidae (5). This study add to the current published list, new 115 species, including new occurrences (e.g. Chromis limbata), and some endemic (e.g. Sparisoma amplum), exotic (e.g. Omobranchus punctatus), endangered (e.g. Hippocampus erectus) and overexploited (e.g. Lutjanus analis) species. Twenty one species are present in the IUCN’s list, twelve in the IBAMA’s list and four in the local list. All elasmobranchii recorded here are considered threatened species, like the brazilian guitarfish (Rhinobatos horkelii), which appears in three red lists, and it is considered critically endangered. All species of Epinephelidae are mentioned in the list of risk categories of the IUCN and five are cited as overexploited or threatened with overexploitation by IBAMA. Among Epinephelidae, the goliath grouper (Epinephelus itajara), is present in all red lists and has specific protection rules in Brazil. The gathered information will allow to take appropriate conservation measures, such as the establishment of marine protected areas, monitoring of fishing practices, assessment of the tourism impact and to control harbor activities.
