Iterative Ecological Radiation and Convergence during the Evolutionary History of Damselfishes (Pomacentridae) [PDF]
The American Naturalist, 2013 Coral reef fishes represent one of the most spectacularly diverse assemblages of vertebrates on the planet, but our understanding of their mode of diversification remains limited. Here we test whether the diversity of the damselfishes (Pomacentridae), one of the most species-rich families of reef-associated fishes, was produced by a single or multiple ...

Low Ectoparasite Loads and Interactions With Cleaner Fish Among Amphiprion Anemonefish
Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT Interactions between ectoparasites, reef fishes and cleaner species are well documented; however, anemonefishes (Amphiprioninae) have been largely overlooked in this context. A hypothesis proposed as early as 1869 suggests that anemonefishes may experience reduced ectoparasite loads due to their symbiotic association with venomous host sea ...

Colour and shape evolution reflect ecological specialisation in Pomacentridae
Abstract Damselfishes (Pomacentridae) display remarkable diversity in colouration and body form, yet the processes shaping this phenotypic variation remain poorly resolved. Our study aimed to characterise the evolution of these traits, evaluate their associations with ecological factors, and identify convergent patterns linked to ...

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 199-211, March 2026.ABSTRACT Saithe (Pollachius virens) is a semipelagic North Atlantic species supporting an important fishery. In the North Sea, saithe spawn east of the Shetland Islands, with larvae recruiting to coastal areas. Understanding the interaction between abiotic and biotic factors influencing larval dispersal is crucial for assessing their population ...

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Introduction Coral reef restoration strategies are rapidly evolving to restore corals and reef functions in response to accelerating disturbances worldwide. One active restoration technique that is rapidly gaining momentum is the larval enhancement method which involves the introduction of cultured coral larvae directly onto degraded reefs ...
