• The Chemical Ecology of Sponges on Caribbean Reefs: Natural Products Shape Natural Systems (2011, result): “This dichotomy was in marked contrast to the pattern observed for gorgonian corals (sea whips and fans) on Caribbean reefs, because all the common species were strongly chemically defended (O’Neal and Pawlik 2002).”
• Latitudinal gradients in Atlantic reef fish communities: trophic structure and spatial use patterns (2004, background): “Although various authors have recently demonstrated that the nutritional value of sponges and gorgonians (Chanas & Pawlik, 1995; O’Neal & Pawlik, 2002), detritus (Wilson, 2002; Wilson et al., 2003) and endolithic algae (Bruggeman, 1994) are higher than previously thought, these resources have to be…”
