Going Beyond Body Size in Fish Acoustic Communication [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionIn 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’

Active provisioning of food to host sea anemones by anemonefish [PDF]
Scientific ReportsIn mutualistic symbiosis, organisms often provide food to their partners. However, the processes and significance of food provisioning to hosts remain poorly understood.

‘What Does the Anemonefish Say?’: Investigating Amphiprion percula's Acoustic Behaviour [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionAcoustic communication plays a critical role in mediating social interactions, coordinating behaviours and maintaining group cohesion in many animals.

Anemonefish use sialic acid metabolism as Trojan horse to avoid giant sea anemone stinging [PDF]
BMC BiologyBackground Anemonefish association with sea anemones is a prime example of mutualistic symbiosis. These fish live inside the sea anemone, benefitting from the protection of its toxic nematocysts, and in return, protect the anemone from its own predators.

Anemonefishes: A model system for evolutionary genomics [version 2; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
F1000Research, 2023 Anemonefishes are an iconic group of coral reef fish particularly known for their mutualistic relationship with sea anemones. This mutualism is especially intriguing as it likely prompted the rapid diversification of anemonefish.

A new species of Anemonefish from French Polynesia, Amphiprion maohiensis, (Pomacentridae, Amphiprioninae), the Polynesian anemonefish [PDF]
ZooKeysAnemonefishes (Teleostei, Pomacentridae) comprise approximately 28 species of damselfishes that exclusively live symbiotically with sea anemones. Distribution ranges vary, with some species only found in few isolated islands and others with ranges that ...

Near complete local extinction of iconic anemonefish and their anemone hosts following a heat stress event [PDF]
npj BiodiversityA fundamental question in modern-day ecology is: How will populations and their interactions respond to a rapidly changing climate? Documenting local collapses of ecologically and economically important populations can offer insight into broader patterns

Cell-cell communication as underlying principle governing color pattern formation in teleost fishes [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe diverse pigmentation patterns of animals are crucial for predation avoidance and behavioral display. This diversity arises from interactions among distinct pigment cell types, yet mechanisms generating pattern variation across teleost fishes remain ...

Iridophore apoptosis mediates socially-regulated developmental color pattern plasticity in an anemonefish. [PDF]
PLoS BiologyUnderstanding the developmental basis of phenotypic plasticity is key to unraveling the origins of biodiversity. In coral reef fishes, color pattern changes during ontogeny can serve adaptive functions, yet the mechanisms and ecological contexts shaping ...
