Neglected Biodiversity of Fish Assemblages Associated With Antipatharia (Black Corals) on Tropical Shallow Reef Ecosystems

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
The role of antipatharians (black corals) in supporting tropical shallow reef fishes. ABSTRACT Addressing anthropogenic threats compromising the persistence of tropical marine ecosystems requires a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental ecological functions organisms fulfill in these realms.

Pairs of cleaner fish prolong interaction duration with client reef fish by increasing service quality [PDF]

, 2017
We present field experiments showing that levels of cooperation quantitatively predict the duration of interactions between the cleaner wrasse and its reef fish clients.

Alteration of cleaner wrasse cognition and brain morphology under marine heatwaves

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 8, Page 1894-1905, August 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Heatwaves, exacerbated by global warming, are progressively affecting various ecosystems, with coral reefs among the most susceptible. Within these ecosystems, cleaner wrasses (Labroides dimidiatus) engage in cooperative interactions with client fish by removing ...

Megalocytivirus: A Review of Epidemiology, Pathogenicity, Immune Evasion, and Prevention Strategies

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Megalocytivirus, a large double‐stranded DNA virus belonging to the Iridoviridae family, has infected over 100 species of fish, leading to significant economic losses in the aquaculture, food, and ornamental fish industries. These viruses exhibit icosahedral symmetry and have diameters ranging from 120 to 200 nm.

Distinguishing personal belief from scientific knowledge for the betterment of killer whale welfare – a commentary [PDF]

, 2020
We contest publication of Marino et al. regarding captive killer whale (Orcinus orca) welfare because of misrepresentations of available data and the use of citations that do not support assertions. Marino et al. misrepresent stress response concepts and

First Observations of a Deep‐Water Seagrass Meadow (Thalassodendron ciliatum) on an Oceanic Reef in the Southern Coral Sea Marine Park, Australia

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
First record of a significant deep‐water seagrass meadow in the Coral Sea Marine Park and observations on associated reef fishes. ABSTRACT Tropical seagrass meadows are important global marine ecosystems that provide critical ecosystem goods and services.

Helping in humans and other animals: a fruitful interdisciplinary dialogue. [PDF]

, 2017
Humans are arguably unique in the extent and scale of cooperation with unrelated individuals. While pairwise interactions among non-relatives occur in some non-human species, there is scant evidence of the large-scale, often unconditional prosociality ...

Comparing remote and hand‐held video observation methods for quantifying a cleaning mutualism

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 106, Issue 3, Page 775-783, March 2025.
Abstract Field studies of cleaning mutualisms use a variety of methods to quantify behavioral dynamics. Studies in marine systems typically utilize data recorded by human observers on scuba or snorkel or via remote underwater video. The effects of these different methods on cleaner–client behaviors have not been rigorously assessed.

Motorboat noise disrupts co-operative interspecific interactions

Scientific Reports, 2017
Human-made noise is contributing increasingly to ocean soundscapes. Its physical, physiological and behavioural effects on marine organisms are potentially widespread, but our understanding remains largely limited to intraspecific impacts.
