Vacuums of the sea: Ecological function of large coral reef benthic scavengers in suppressing crown-of-thorns starfish (COTS) outbreaks

Ideas in Ecology and Evolution
Despite their drastic impacts on coral reefs, outbreaks of the coral-feeding seastar crown-of-thorns starfish (COTS), Acanthaster, have remained a scientific enigma.

Pathogenesis of crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci L)

, 2012
Outbreaks of the crown-of-thorns starfish, Acanthaster planci (L.), represent one of the most significant biological disturbances on coral reefs, contributing greatly to widespread habitat degradation across the Indo-Pacific. While the cause(s) of outbreaks are still being debated, an equally important question is what causes population declines at the
