The Box Crab Calappa hepatica as a Nuclear Species for the Opportunistic Foraging Behaviour of the Flowery Flounder, Bothus mancus, in the Indo-Pacific

Diversity
Some predatory fishes may exhibit opportunistic feeding behaviour by exploiting potential prey that is distracted, displaced, or exposed by the activities of a third party that acts as a ‘nuclear’ species. Other fishes mostly perform the role of ‘nuclear’

Evolution of rhodopsin in flatfishes (Pleuronectiformes) is associated with depth and migratory behavior

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 105, Issue 3, Page 779-790, September 2024.
Abstract Visual signals are involved in many fitness‐related tasks and are therefore essential for survival in many species. Aquatic organisms are ideal systems to study visual evolution, as the high diversity of spectral properties in aquatic environments generates great potential for adaptation to different light conditions.

Sacred offerings and secular foods on Reao Atoll, Tuamotu Archipelago, East Polynesia

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 59, Issue 1, Page 29-67, April 2024.
ABSTRACT In 1976, Yosihiko H. Sinoto conducted extensive archaeological survey and excavations on Reao Atoll, Tuamotu Archipelago as part of a Japanese, multi‐disciplinary expedition led by Prof. Sachiko Hatanaka. Primarily excavating three marae and four habitation sites totalling ∼180 m2, more than 25000 vertebrate remains were recovered.
