The Eocene fishes of Monte Bolca: the earliest coral reef fish assemblageCoral Reefs - Tập 15 - Trang 11-19 - 1996
D. R. Bellwood
The fish assemblage from the Eocene deposits of Monte Bolca, Northern Italy, are compared with those of Recent coral reefs. A family-level taxonomic definition of a Recent coral reef fish assemblage is formulated to permit direct comparisons. On this basis, the Monte Bolca fishes represent the earliest clearly defined coral reef fish assemblage. Quantitative analyses of the relative abundance of f...... hiện toàn bộ
Spatial patterns of cryptobenthic coral-reef fishes in the Red SeaCoral Reefs - Tập 37 - Trang 193-199 - 2017

Surveys to document coral-reef fish assemblages are often limited to visually conspicuous species, thus excluding a significant proportion of the biodiversity. Through standardized collections of cryptobenthic reef fishes in the central and southern Red Sea, a total of 238 species and operational taxonomic units (OTUs) from 35 families were collected. Abundance and species richness increased by 60...... hiện toàn bộ

Analysis of otolith chemistry in Nassau grouper (Epinephelus striatus) from the Bahamas and Belize using solution-based ICP-MSCoral Reefs - Tập 18 - Trang 171-178 - 1999
H. M. Patterson, S. R. Thorrold, J.M. Shenker
We examined the utility of otolith minor and trace element chemistry, assayed with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), as a means of delineating population structure in the Nassau grouper (Epinephelus striatus). We characterized the elemental composition of otoliths collected in 1993 from three locations in Exuma Sound, Bahamas and from Glover Reef, Belize in 1995. A single loc...... hiện toàn bộ
Life history traits of the sea snake Emydocephalus annulatus, based on a 17-yr studyCoral Reefs - - 2020
Richard Shine, Terri G. Shine, Gregory P. Brown, Claire Goiran
Although sea snakes are important predators in coral reef ecosystems and have undergone substantial population declines in some areas, we have little robust information on life histories of these animals. Based on a 17-yr mark–recapture study of turtle-headed sea snakes (Emydocephalus annulatus) in New Caledonia (> 1200 individuals marked), we can confidently allocate ages to 539 individuals (1–11...... hiện toàn bộ
