The serotonin blocker Ketanserin reduces coral reef fish Ctenochaetus striatus aggressive behaviour during between-species social interactions [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
A multitude of species engages in social interactions not only with their conspecifics but also with other species. Such interspecific interactions can be either positive, like helping, or negative, like aggressive behaviour.

Long-term cleaner fish presence affects growth of a coral reef fish. [PDF]

open access: yesBiol Lett, 2011
Cleaning behaviour is considered to be a classical example of mutualism. However, no studies, to our knowledge, have measured the benefits to clients in terms of growth. In the longest experimental study of its kind, over an 8 year period, cleaner fish Labroides dimidiatus were consistently removed from seven patch ...

Historical gene flow constraints in a northeastern Atlantic fish: phylogeography of the ballan wrasse Labrus bergylta across its distribution range [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2017
The distribution and demographic patterns of marine organisms in the north Atlantic were largely shaped by climatic changes during the Pleistocene, when recurrent glacial maxima forced them to move south or to survive in northern peri-glacial refugia ...

“A cleaner break”: Genetic divergence between geographic groups and sympatric phenotypes revealed in ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Capture and long‐distance translocation of cleaner fish to control lice infestations on marine salmonid farms has the potential to influence wild populations via overexploitation in source regions, and introgression in recipient regions.

A Screening Study on Effects Varying Dietary Macronutrient Composition on Gut Functions in Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Cultivation of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) as lice cleaner fish for salmon is now expanding. For successful cultivation of a new species, understanding the basic biology of digestive functions is vital to facilitate and optimize diet formulation.

The Neurobiology of Mutualistic Behavior: The Cleanerfish Swims into the Spotlight

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2017
One of the most notorious examples of cooperation between different species happens in the cleaner-client fish mutualism. The best known cleaner fish species, the bluestreak Indo-Pacific cleaner wrasse Labroides dimidiatus has been a model system to ...

Image scoring and cooperation in a cleaner fish mutualism [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2006
Humans are highly social animals and often help unrelated individuals that may never reciprocate the altruist's favour. This apparent evolutionary puzzle may be explained by the altruist's gain in social image: image-scoring bystanders, also known as eavesdroppers, notice the altruistic act and therefore are more likely to help the altruist in the ...
