We explored the evolutionary history of Trapezia crabs, key coral mutualists, using genomic data from museum and freshly collected samples. We recovered a well‐supported phylogeny of the Trapezia genus, clarifying species relationships and supporting the division of Trapezia into two genera. Detailed analyses of the widespread species T.

Outbreaks of crown-of-thorns sea stars (CoTS) threaten coral reef integrity and biodiversity, yet local dynamics and short-term responses to control remain insufficiently described.

Early life stage bottleneck determines rates of coral recovery following severe disturbance
Abstract Understanding how foundation species recover from disturbances is key for predicting the future of ecosystems in the Anthropocene. Coral reefs are dynamic ecosystems that can undergo rapid declines in coral abundance following disturbances. Understanding why some reefs recover quickly from these disturbances whereas others recover slowly (or ...

Multi‐Factor Coral Disease Risk: A new product for early warning and management
Abstract Ecological forecasts are becoming increasingly valuable tools for conservation and management. However, there are few examples of near‐real‐time forecasting systems that account for the wide range of ecological complexities. We developed a new coral disease ecological forecasting system that explores a suite of ecological relationships and ...

Cost‐effectiveness of tourism‐led coral planting at scale on the northern Great Barrier Reef
Stakeholder‐led coral reef restoration efforts, aimed at locally retaining or rebuilding coral populations, have rapidly grown over the last two decades. However, the cost‐effectiveness—and in turn viability—of coral restoration projects remains rarely reported.

Temperature and the Larval Ecology of the Crown-of-Thorns Starfish, Acanthaster planci
The recently reported dramatic population increases (outbreaks) of the coral-eating crown-of-thorns starfish, Acanthaster planci, which have damaged many reefs in the Indo-Pacific, are ending (1), but questions remain about the factors that affect Acanthaster distribution and densities.

Three New Steroid Biglycosides, Plancisides A, B, and C, from the Starfish
Three new steroid biglycosides, plancisides A-C ( 1 - 3 ), were isolated from the ethanolic extract of the starfish Acanthaster planci. The structures of 1 - 3 were determined by extensive NMR and ESI-MS techniques, as (24 S )-28- O -[β-D ...
