‘Personality’ in two species of temperate damselfish [PDF]
The extent and importance of consistent individual differences in behaviour, often referred to as 'personality' or 'temperament', is a relatively recent question in ecology. It indicates that animal behaviour is much less flexible than usually assumed, and suggests that individuals con- sistently differ in the way they perceive and react to changes in ...

Kelp forests modulate fish community dynamics and responses to ocean warming
Our spatially resolved benchmark indicates that abundant kelp cover can delay tropicalisation by lowering the realised thermal affinity of reef‐fish communities, while increases in fish biodiversity may signal the early stages of this process. Abstract Kelp forests are foundation habitats that create structurally complex and biodiverse marine ...

Loss of live coral compromises predator-avoidance behaviour in coral reef damselfish
Tropical reefs have experienced an unprecedented loss of live coral in the past few decades and the biodiversity of coral-dependent species is under threat.

A new species of Chromis damselfish from the tropical western Atlantic (Teleostei, Pomacentridae)
Initially described in 1882, Chromisenchrysurus, the Yellowtail Reeffish, was redescribed in 1982 to account for an observed color morph that possesses a white tail instead of a yellow one, but morphological and geographic boundaries between the two ...

We raised fall field crickets in acoustic environments of silence, their own song, traffic noise, or the song of the recently introduced Japanese burrowing cricket and measured development, size, and adult survival. We found that crickets reared with burrowing cricket song developed more quickly than crickets reared in silence.

Vessel noise affects routine swimming and escape response of a coral reef fish.
An increasing number of studies have shown that anthropogenic noise can negatively affect aspects of the anti-predator behaviour of reef fishes, potentially affecting fitness and survival.

We explored age‐related cognitive decline in captive fawn‐footed mosaic‐tailed rats (Melomys cervinipes) using a novel object recognition task. Contrary to expectations, recognition memory did not decline with age, but recognition memory was lower in intermediate‐aged rats compared to both older and younger individuals.

Species of the family Pomacentridae, including damselfishes, provide parental care and show territorial behavior. Microspathodon dorsalis, Giant damselfishes, are known to be especially territorial within their nesting sites and will attack other species
