Parasites and cleaning behaviour in damselfishes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Pomacentrids (damselfishes) are one of the most common and diverse group of marine fishes foundon coral reefs. However, their digenean fauna and cleaning interactions with the bluestreak cleanerwrasse, Labroides dimidiatus, are poorly studied. This thesis explores the digenean trematode faunain damselfishes from Lizard Island, Great Barrier Reef (GBR),

Damselfish on Seafloor, Teagues Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands

open access: yes, 1990
A damselfish is inside a transparent jar on the sandy seafloor, while another damselfish swims outside in the surrounding marine environment. This setup likely serves as part of a study on territorial behavior in damselfish in Teagues Bay, St. Croix, U.S.

Effects of damselfish neurofibromatosis on cell respiration and DNA copy number in bicolor damselfish (stegastes partitus)

open access: yes, 2020
Damselfish virus-like agent (DVLA) is an oncogenic agent that induces Damselfish neurofibromatosis (DNF) in bicolor damselfish (Stegastes partitus) in the Florida reef tract. It is unique for being the only known transmissible tumorigenic agent to infect

Contrasting Responses in the Niches of Two Coral Reef Herbivores Along a Gradient of Habitat Disturbance in the Spermonde Archipelago, Indonesia

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Habitat modification of coral reefs is becoming increasingly common due to increases in coastal urban populations. Coral reef fish are highly dependent on benthic habitat; however, information on species-specific responses to habitat change, in ...

The Distribution of Planktivorous Damselfishes (Pomacentridae) on the Great Barrier Reef and the Relative Influences of Habitat and Predation

open access: yesDiversity, 2019
Planktivorous damselfishes (Pomacentridae) are diverse and abundant on the Great Barrier Reef (GBR), are important prey for commercially harvested coral trout (Plectropomus spp.) and their feeding mode plays a central role in transferring energy from the

Damselfish territories as a refuge for macroalgae on coral reefs

open access: yes, 2010
Herbivory is widely accepted as a key process determining the benthic community structure and resilience of coral reefs. Recent studies have mostly focused on the importance of roving herbivorous fishes in ecosystem processes.

Space partitioning among damselfishes in the Caribbean coast of Panama: the role of habitat preferences

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology
This study aimed to assess abundance and habitat use by juvenile and adult damselfishes, as much as the benthic cover of different reefs on Isla Colon, Bocas del Toro, Panama.

An Indo-Pacific damselfish (Neopomacentrus cyanomos) in the Gulf of Mexico: origin and mode of introduction

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
The Indo-West Pacific (IWP) coral-reef damselfish Neopomacentrus cyanomos is well established across the south-west Gulf of Mexico (SwGoMx). Comparisons of mtDNA sequences of the SwGoMx population with those from conspecifics from 16 sites scattered ...
