A ligament influences the diversification of damselfishes (Pomacentridae)
, 2013 editorial reviewedThe Pomacentridae (damselfishes) is one of the most successful families of reef-associated fishes (386 species). In 1981, Stiassny described a synapomorphic trait of the Pomacentridae: the cerato-mandibular ligament (CML) joining the ...

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 ...

Reef fish endemism and genetic connectivity: Phylogeography of endemic damselfishes in the Hawaiian Archipelago [PDF]
, 2014 While it was once widely accepted that there is plentiful larval dispersal and high levels of connectivity in marine populations, studies detecting self-recruitment and local larval retention in reef fishes have revealed that not all marine organisms ...

Evolution and diversity of ram-suction feeding in damselfishes (Pomacentridae) [PDF]
, 2017 peer reviewedThe cerato-mandibular (c-md) ligament is a synapomorphy within Pomacentridae that creates a tight link between the lower jaws and the hyoid bars.

Boat noise affects the early life history of two damselfishes
, 2019 Anthropogenic noise can have a negative effect on the physiology and survival of marine fishes. Most research has focused on later life-stages, and few studies have investigated the effects of human-induced noise on embryogenesis.

Interspecific differences in how habitat degradation affects escape response
Scientific Reports, 2017 Degradation of habitats is widespread and a leading cause of extinctions. Our study determined whether the change in the chemical landscape associated with coral degradation affected the way three fish species use olfactory information to optimize their ...

Demography and age structures of coral reef damselfishes in the tropical eastern Pacific Ocean
, 2001 Few studies have examined spatial variation in the demography or age structures of coral reef fishes. We analysed sectioned sagittal otoliths to describe the age structures, growth and mortality of 5 species of Stegastes damselfishes.
