  abstract = {{T}he emergence of {DNA} barcoding and metabarcoding opened new ways to study biological diversity, however, the completion of {DNA} barcode libraries is fundamental for such approaches to succeed. {T}his dataset is a {DNA} barcode reference library (fragment of {C}ytochrome {O}xydase {I} gene) for 2,190 specimens representing at least 540 species of shore fishes collected over 10 years at 154 sites across the four volcanic archipelagos of {F}rench {P}olynesia; the {A}ustral, {G}ambier, {M}arquesas and {S}ociety {I}slands, a 5,000,000 km(2) area. {A}t present, 65% of the known shore fish species of these archipelagoes possess a {DNA} barcode associated with preserved, photographed, tissue sampled and cataloged specimens, and extensive collection locality data. {T}his dataset represents one of the most comprehensive {DNA} barcoding efforts for a vertebrate fauna to date. {C}onsidering the challenges associated with the conservation of coral reef fishes and the difficulties of accurately identifying species using morphological characters, this publicly available library is expected to be helpful for both authorities and academics in various fields.},
