Landmark-based Morphometric and Meristic Analysis of Serranidae
The landmark-based morphometric and meristic analysis of the kelp grouper (Epinephelus bruneus), red spotted grouper (E. akaara) and seven-banded grouper (E. septemfasciatus) were performed to compare the differentiation of overall body shape and structure.

The role of macroalgae as nursery areas for fish species within coastal seascapes
One of the most critical ecosystem functions provided by shallow coastal habitats is as nurseries for the juveniles of fish. Many of the studies that have assessed the nursery function of structurally complex coastal habitats have compared seagrass with ...

Active Versus Passive eDNA Sampling Across Depths at a Tropical Fish‐Aggregating Device (FAD)
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.

The trematodes of groupers (Serranidae: Epinephelinae): knowledge, nature and evolution
Groupers (Epinephelinae) are prominent marine fishes distributed in the warmer waters of the world. Review of the literature suggests that trematodes are known from only 62 of the 159 species and only 9 of 15 genera; nearly 90% of host–parasite combinations have been reported only once or twice.

Reconstructing Early Human Subsistence in Near Oceania: New Insights From Matenkupkum and Matenbek
ABSTRACT The colonization of New Ireland ~44–40,000 years ago represents the earliest evidence of human occupation in Near Oceania. Yet, the precise impacts of climatic changes on subsistence strategies during the Late Pleistocene, Last Glacial Maximum, and Holocene remain poorly understood.

Age, growth, and natural mortality of yellowfin grouper (Mycteroperca venenosa) from the southeastern United States [PDF]
Ages of yellowfin grouper (n = 306) from the southeastern United States coast from 1979–2014 were determined using sectioned sagittal otoliths. Opaque zones were annular, forming January–June (peaking in February–March).

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 ...
