• Larval settlement and metamorphosis of the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis in response to biofilms (2006, background): “Settlement and metamorphosis of larvae of many marine invertebrate species are known to be mediated by bioWlms (see reviews by Pawlik 1992; Wieczorek and Todd 1998; HadWeld and Paul 2001).”
• Marine Epibiosis: Concepts, Ecological Consequences and Host Defence (2008, background): “Irrespective of the fouling sequence, for most meroplanktonic larvae settlement is the ultimate prerequisite for successful metamorphosis into sedentary juveniles (Hadfield and Paul 2001) .”
• Metamorphic Competence, a Major Adaptive Convergence in Marine Invertebrate Larvae1 (2001, background): “Competent larvae of most benthic marine invertebrates are triggered to metamorphose by external cues (Hadfield and Paul, 2001).”
• Induction of metamorphosis in larvae of the brooding corals Acropora palifera and Stylophora pistillata (2004, background): “Settlement and metamorphosis in many marine invertebrate larvae is induced by chemical and other environmental cues (Scheltema 1974; Hadfield and Paul 2001).”
• Composition and density of bacterial biofilms determine larval settlement of the polychaete Hydroides elegans (2003, background): “For most species studied, the settlement of larvae is not random but correlates with biological, chemical and physical factors in the environment (Crisp 1974, Chia & Rice 1978, Pawlik 1992, Hadfield & Paul 2001).”
• Cues for Metamorphosis of Brachyuran Crabs: An Overview1 (2001, background): “Such relationships are well documented for other invertebrates (for reviews see, Crisp, 1974; Pawlik, 1992; Hadfield and Paul, 2001).”
• Coral Reef Algae (2011, background): “2009), and crustose coralline algae are known to induce settlement and metamorphosis for a variety of marine invertebrate larvae (Hadfield and Paul 2001).”
• Larvae of Pocillopora damicornis (Anthozoa) settle and metamorphose in response to surface-biofilm bacteria (2011, background): “Larvae gain the ability to settle and metamorphose when they become ‘competent,’ which is defined as having the capacity to detect and respond to a specific environmental cue (Hadfield & Paul 2001, Hadfield et al. 2001).”
• Substratum preferences in planula larvae of two species of scleractinian corals, Goniastrea retiformis and Stylaraea punctata (2007, background): “Once larvae settle and come into contact with the substratum, chemicals associated with the substratum, conspeciWcs or preferred prey may be responsible for metamorphic induction (Morse 1990; Pawlik and HadWeld 1990; HadWeld and Paul 2001).”
• Chemical effects of macroalgae on larval settlement of the broadcast spawning coral Acropora millepora (2008, background): “Emerging evidence indicates that a range of benthic algae can have chemical effects, which either enhance (Morse 1991, 1992, Pawlik 1992, Hadfield & Paul 2001) or deter the settlement of marine invertebrate larvae (Steinberg et al. 2001, 2002, Walters et al. 2003, review by Birrell et al. 2008).”
