Diversity and complexity in the acoustic behaviour of Dacyllus flavicaudus (Pomacentridae) [PDF]
Marine Biology, 2010 Synchronous underwater audio–video recordings and a passive acoustic detector were used to study the behaviour of Dascyllus flavicaudus. These damselfish produced sounds during six different behaviours and showed three different colour patterns while doing so.

Going Beyond Body Size in Fish Acoustic Communication
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT In this response to Dr. Eric Parmentier's comments on our paper ‘“What Does the Anemonefish Say?”: Investigating Amphiprion percula's Acoustic Behaviour’, we correct and clarify Dr. Parmentier's affirmations. Firstly, we address the statistical ‘problems’ by clarifying our statistical approach, highlighting the advantages of GLMMs in ...

Ontogenetic and phylogenetic simplification during white stripe evolution in clownfishes
BMC Biology, 2018 Background Biologists have long been fascinated by the striking diversity of complex color patterns in tropical reef fishes. However, the origins and evolution of this diversity are still poorly understood.

Chemical alarm cues are conserved within the coral reef fish family Pomacentridae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Fishes are known to use chemical alarm cues from both conspecifics and heterospecifics to assess local predation risks and enhance predator detection. Yet it is unknown how recognition of heterospecific cues arises for coral reef fishes. Here, we test if

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Marine animal forests (MAFs) are dense aggregations of habitat‐forming species that constitute essential habitats for diverse taxa including fish. However, the study of MAFs and their associated fauna remains largely skewed to their shallowest occurrence, above 30 m depth.

With a Little Help from My Friends: Group Orientation by Larvae of a Coral Reef Fish. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Theory and some empirical evidence suggest that groups of animals orient better than isolated individuals. We present the first test of this hypothesis for pelagic marine larvae, at the stage of settlement, when orientation is critical to find a habitat.

Active Versus Passive eDNA Sampling Across Depths at a Tropical Fish‐Aggregating Device (FAD)
Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.Sampling at a fish aggregating device over three consecutive days using active and passive samplers detected a total of 39 fish operational taxonomic units (OTUs). Of these, 25 OTUs were shared between the two sampling approaches. The composition of detected OTUs varied among days and between sampler types.

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Our goals were (1) to identify the metacommunity structure of the reef fish fauna as well as the structure of its constituent trophic guilds (invertivores, generalist carnivores, omnivores, herbivores, planktivores and piscivores); (2) to evaluate the extent to which metacommunity compartmentalization is associated with biogeographic ...
