Cryptobenthic reef fishes may not be safe from invasive lionfish (Pterois spp. Oken, 1817)

We evaluated these potential effects on Caribbean reefs in Costa Rica and tropical reefs in Brazil. Brazil provided a reference condition for cryptobenthic assemblages prior to lionfish invasion, while the Costa Rica sites ...
