Integrating biotic interactions in niche analyses unravels patterns of community composition in clownfishes

open access: yesEcological Monographs, Volume 96, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract Mutualistic interactions play a fundamental role in shaping species distributions, driving niche differentiation, and structuring communities. Yet their influence on realized niches and patterns of coexistence remains poorly understood. In clownfishes, mutualism with sea anemones underpins their biogeography and ecological success, with ...

Limited Capacity for Faster Digestion in Larval Coral Reef Fish at an Elevated Temperature.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The prevalence of extreme, short-term temperature spikes in coastal regions during summer months is predicted to increase with ongoing climate change. In tropical systems, these changes are predicted to increase the metabolic demand of coral reef fish ...

Game over: Conflict resolution through strategic growth in an invertebrate

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 36-50, January 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In some multimember groups with unequal partitioning of reproduction and poor breeding opportunities outside the group, natural selection has favoured the evolution of adaptive mechanisms such as strategic growth modulation.

Pelagic Larval Duration and Population Structure of a Widely Distributed Amphidromous Fish in the Indo‐Pacific Region

open access: yesEcology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Freshwater habitats in the Indo‐Pacific Islands are colonised by amphidromous fish, which undergo a marine larval phase while the rest of the life cycle takes place in the riverine habitat. These fish are mainly represented by Gobiiformes. Among these, Stenogobius genivittatus (Valenciennes, 1837) is widely distributed in the Indo‐Pacific ...

Unveiling the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of the Berlengas Archipelago in Portugal as a Hotspot of Fish Species Using eDNA Metabarcoding and the Collaboration of Fishing Crews

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Managing fishery resources is crucial to ensure the marine environment continues to provide diverse goods and services. To overcome difficulties of classical methods used for fish stock management, molecular tools have shown potential to address this ...

Non‐Lethally Produced Chemical Risk Cues Elicit Antipredator Responses in a Common Canadian Minnow

open access: yesEthology, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Predation risk exerts significant pressure on the survival of prey species and has many indirect impacts on their habitat use, energy allocation, and community dynamics. Prey must consistently assess their surroundings by using multiple information sources to monitor predation risk and respond accordingly.

Physiological Traits for Predicting Poleward Extensions in Tropical Fishes: From Lab to Management

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 4, April 2025.
We review the physiological mechanisms that permit poleward range expansions of tropical reef fishes into temperate waters. Filling in key knowledge gaps, we develop a framework to improve the implementation of physiological traits in improving our understanding of how tropical species adapt to temperate habitats.

Does visual or mechanosensory disruption influence risk assessment in coral reef fishes: a preliminary study

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 105, Issue 6, Page 1919-1928, December 2024.
Abstract Interpreting and responding to environmental cues from different modalities has survival value. In fish, the role of multimodal perception has been studied in regard to both foraging and risk assessment, with modalities including vision, olfaction, and mechanoreception via lateral lines.

Multi‐level framework to assess social variation in response to ecological and social factors: modeled with coral gobies

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2024, Issue 10, October 2024.
Understanding variation in social organization that lacks a strong phylogenetic signal represents a key focus of research in behavioural ecology. Accordingly, we established a framework that identifies whether a range of ecological and social factors are affecting the social maintenance of taxa across multiple categories of social variation (ranging ...

Spatial autocorrelation and host anemone species drive variation in local components of fitness in a wild clownfish population

open access: yesPeer Community Journal
The susceptibility of species to habitat changes depends on which ecological drivers shape individual fitness components. To date, only a few studies have quantified fitness components such as the Lifetime Reproductive Success across multiple generations
