Predators drive community structure in coral reef fish assemblages (2015, background): “Categorization of species into trophic groups was decided based on published accounts and personal observations of diet and feeding behavior (Ceccarelli et al. 2005, Pratchett and Berumen 2008, Green and Bellwood 2009, Froese and Pauly 2013).”
Coral–macroalgal phase shifts or reef resilience: links with diversity and functional roles of herbivorous fishes on the Great Barrier Reef (2010, methodology): “…in reversing phase shifts, omission of these fishes is unlikely to bias our study as we were interested in the prevention of phase shifts, a process that can involve a wide range of herbivorous fishes and not only species that target macroalgae (see Introduction and Green and Bellwood 2009).”
