Clarifying the Size–Frequency Relationship in Clownfish Acoustic Signals [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionBody size is the principal determinant of acoustic variation in anemonefish, reflecting both the mechanics of sound production and the size‐based structure of their social hierarchies.

Plasticity of Dispersal‐Related Larval Traits in the Clown Anemonefish Amphiprion percula [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionA major goal in marine ecology is to understand patterns of larval dispersal and population connectivity. Dispersal plasticity allows for adaptive variation in dispersal phenotypes in response to variation in environmental conditions and may help to ...

Otx2 expression and implications for olfactory imprinting in the anemonefish, Amphiprion percula [PDF]
Biology Open, 2013 Summary The otx2 gene encodes a transcription factor (OTX2) essential in the formation of the brain and sensory systems. Specifically, OTX2-positive cells are associated with axons in the olfactory system of mice and otx2 is upregulated in odour-exposed ...

Heritability of dispersal‐related larval traits in the clown anemonefish Amphiprion percula [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 A major goal of marine ecology is to identify the drivers of variation in larval dispersal. Larval traits are emerging as an important potential source of variation in dispersal outcomes, but little is known about how the evolution of these traits might ...

Host anemone size as a determinant of social group size and structure in the orange clownfish (Amphiprion percula) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 The size and structure of social groups of animals can be governed by a range of ecological factors and behavioral interactions. In small, highly site-attached coral reef fishes, group size is often constrained by the size of the habitat patch they are ...

Going Beyond Body Size in Fish Acoustic Communication. [PDF]
Ecol EvolABSTRACT In this response to Dr. Eric Parmentier's comments on our paper ‘“What Does the Anemonefish Say?”: Investigating Amphiprion percula's Acoustic Behaviour’, we correct and clarify Dr. Parmentier's affirmations. Firstly, we address the statistical ‘problems’ by clarifying our statistical approach, highlighting the advantages of GLMMs in ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of the Picasso clownfish: genomic comparisons and phylogenetic inference among Amphiprioninae [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020 Picasso clownfish belong to the subfamily Amphiprioninae and are considered a variant of the genus Amphiprion. In this study, we first sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of the Picasso clownfish by Illumina next-generation sequencing technology.

Extent of threats to marine fish from the online aquarium trade in the United States. [PDF]
Conserv BiolThe global marine aquarium hobby is a multibillion‐dollar industry, largely driven by demand from the United States. Much of this trade occurs online. We web scraped 4 major US‐based e‐commerce platforms selling marine aquarium fish to determine the retail price and source (wild capture, aquaculture, or both) of 13 families of ray‐finned marine fish ...

Not all social coral reef fishes form strict size-based dominance hierarchies: An investigation of intraspecific size ratios in Dascyllus aruanus. [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstract We present a random pattern of body size ratios between adjacent ranked group members in the humbug damselfish Dascyllus aruanus. This random distribution of size ratios differs from the other well‐known group‐living coral reef fishes which exhibit non‐random, well‐defined and closely regulated size differences between ranks.
