Coral-dwelling fish moderate bleaching susceptibility of coral hosts.
PLoS ONE, 2018 Global environmental change has the potential to disrupt well established species interactions, with impacts on nutrient cycling and ecosystem function. On coral reefs, fish living within the branches of coral colonies can promote coral performance, and ...

Changing patterns of microhabitat utilization by the threespot damselfish, Stegastes planifrons, on Caribbean reefs. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The threespot damselfish, Stegastes planifrons (Cuvier), is important in mediating interactions among corals, algae, and herbivores on Caribbean coral reefs. The preferred microhabitat of S. planifrons is thickets of the branching staghorn coral Acropora

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Predation is a dominant force shaping survival of coral reef fishes. Synchronous, nocturnal settlement during low‐light, new moon periods may have developed as an adaptive response to intense predation during settlement. Post‐larval Capture, Culture, and Release (PCCR), where juvenile fishes are released directly to the reef ...

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract Understanding spatial patterns and drivers of corallivory is essential for assessing reef resilience and identifying recovery pathways. Fish corallivory patterns arise from the complex direct and indirect effects of key factors, including food availability (cover of preferred corals), the nature of the corallivore assemblage (richness and ...

Filial cannibalism in the Cortez Damselfish stegastes rectifraenum [PDF]
Evolution, 1989 Male cortez damselfish, Stegastes rectifraenum, in a central Gulf of California population, ate a large percentage (28.3%) of the clutches they received. This high rate of filial cannibalism permitted the testing of several predictions concerning the types of clutches that should be preferentially eaten and the mating tactics females should employ to ...

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 12, Issue 4, Page 513-530, August 2026.This research established a new object detection model based on YOLOv11 to recognise benthic organisms, specifically sea cucumbers, by utilising high‐resolution photogrammetric‐based orthomosaics acquired along infralittoral Mediterranean Sea beds. The model demonstrated impressive performance metrics and, when combined with the Deepness plugin for the

Comparative trophic morphology in eight species of damselfishes (Pomacentridae) [PDF]
Journal of Morphology, 2007 AbstractDamselfishes show significant biodiversity in the coral reefs. To better understand such diversity, an ecomorphological approach was investigated in the trophic morphology of eight species of Pomacentridae (Chromis acares, C. margaritifer, Dascyllus aruanus, D. flavicaudus, Pomacentrus pavo, Plectroglyphidodon johnstonianus, Pl.
