Intertidal fishes of Mauritius with special reference to shallow tidepools [PDF]
Biodiversity Data Journal, 2019 Intertidal fishes are found in large numbers and play an important role in their ecosystems, but knowledge of their ecology is still very limited in many tropical regions.

Epidermal microstructures on the paired fins of marine sculpins suggest new functional hypotheses supporting benthic station-holding [PDF]
Royal Society Open ScienceHarsh environments, such as those with breaking waves and turbulent flows, present extreme challenges to organismal survival. Many animals exploiting these habitats possess adaptations to maintain position under dynamic flow conditions, such as ...

Hypoxia tolerance of intertidal triplefin fish is associated with low critical oxygen tension and high phosphorylating capacity in brain mitochondria [PDF]
Scientific ReportsAt the terminus of the O2 cascade, mitochondria play an important role in O2 utilisation and energy conservation, with adaptive modifications occasionally shared among hypoxia-tolerant species.

Highly contiguous chromosome-level assembly of the rock goby (Gobius paganellus) genome [PDF]
Scientific DataThe gobies represent the most species-rich family of marine fishes and occupy a remarkable range of ecological niches. Despite their abundance and key role in coastal ecosystems, Mediterranean gobies remain underrepresented in genomic resources. The rock

Mangrove-associated fish assemblages off the southern Panama Bight region (tropical eastern Pacific)
Neotropical Ichthyology, 2021 The Panama Bight ecoregion (PBE) in the eastern Pacific contains probably the best developed mangrove forests in the American continent. Fishes inhabiting the mangrove-estuary mosaic play fundamental ecological roles and sustain the artisanal fishery ...

Littorally adaptive? Testing the link between habitat, morphology, and reproduction in the intertidal sculpin subfamily Oligocottinae (Pisces: Cottoidea) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 While intertidal habitats are often productive, species-rich environments, they are also harsh and highly dynamic. Organisms that live in these habitats must possess morphological and physiological adaptations that enable them to do so. Intertidal fishes
