Behavioral plasticity of nocturnal marine organisms under interspecific competitive pressure
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023 Pacific abalone (Haliotis discus hannai) are typical nocturnal organisms in the marine benthic ecosystem. However, whether their rhythmic behavior is related to the avoidance of interspecific competition for food resources is unknown.

The behavior of sympatric sea urchin species across an ecosystem state gradient [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Background In temperate macroalgal forests, sea urchins are considered as a keystone species due to their grazing ability. Given their potential to shape benthic communities, we monitored the habitat use by three sympatric sea urchin species and compared

Species and Abundance of Sea Urchins (Diadematidae) on Different Environmental Pressure Conditions
Journal of Tropical Life Science, 2017 Genetic diversity of sea urchin are very high; there are no two organisms of the same species that are exactly alike. Dense aggregation of sea urchin is responsible for the destruction of marine algae communities on coral reef ecosystem.

Biotropika: Journal of Tropical Biology, 2023 Marine plastic debris will move with the flow of water and float and then be fragmented into smaller particles, namely microplastics, sink, and settle on the substrate. Sea urchins, as deposit feeders, can potentially ingest microplastic particles, which
