Travel with your kin ship! Insights from genetic sibship among settlers of a coral damselfish
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Coral reef fish larvae are tiny, exceedingly numerous, and hard to track. They are also highly capable, equipped with swimming and sensory abilities that may influence their dispersal trajectories.

A new species of Chromis damselfish from the tropical western Atlantic (Teleostei, Pomacentridae) [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2020 Initially described in 1882, Chromis enchrysurus, 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 ...

Seascape Connectivity Shapes Genetic and Species β-Diversity in Tropical Reef Fishes. [PDF]
Ecol EvolOur study combines species occurrence data from five reef fish families with genomic SNP data for 19 species. A correlation between genetic and species β‐diversity emerges only in the Western Indian Ocean, where higher genetic β‐diversity and significant isolation by distance at both the population and community levels are detected.

Intrageneric differences in the effects of acute temperature exposure on competitive behaviour of damselfishes [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Projected increases in global temperatures brought on by climate change threaten to disrupt many biological and ecological processes. Tropical ectotherms, like many fishes, can be particularly susceptible to temperature change as they occupy environments

Specialization in habitat use by coral reef damselfishes and their susceptibility to habitat loss [PDF]
, 2012 While it is generally assumed that specialist species are more vulnerable to disturbance compared with generalist counterparts, this has rarely been tested in coastal marine ecosystems, which are increasingly subject to a wide range of natural and ...

Duration of Exposure to Elevated Temperature Affects Competitive Interactions in Juvenile Reef Fishes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Climate change will affect key ecological processes that structure natural communities, but the outcome of interactions between individuals and species will depend on their thermal plasticity.
