Geographical gradients of marine herbivorous fishes: patterns and processes (2005, unknown): “Fishes of the genus Scarus that reach the Brazilian coast appear to be recent relatives of Caribbean species (Moura et al. 2001).”
Community structure and diet of roving herbivorous reef fishes in the Abrolhos Archipelago, south‐western Atlantic (2006, background): “Moreover, the Brazilian fauna is of considerable interest as it sustains a high rate of endemic herbivorous fishes (Floeter & Gasparini, 2000; Moura & Sazima, 2003), including several newly described scarids (Moura et al., 2001; Gasparini et al., 2004).”
Patterns of distribution and processes of speciation in Brazilian reef fishes (2003, background): “…reef fishes became available, including species descriptions (Sazima et al., 1998; Rocha & Rosa, 1999; Heiser et al., 2000; Gasparini et al., 2001; Moura et al., 2001), redescriptions and revalidations of fishes endemic to Brazilian reefs (Rocha et al., 2001; Rocha & Rosa, 2001b), faunal surveys…”
Biogeography of tropical reef fishes: the South Atlantic puzzle (2001, background): “…al., 1999; Floeter et al., 2001), the description of new species (e.g. Sazima et al., 1998; Rocha & Rosa, 1999; Heiser et al., 2000; Burgess, 2001; Moura et al., 2001), the ®rst comprehensive collections for certain sites (e.g. Rosa & Moura, 1997; Rocha et al., 1998; Gasparini & Floeter, 2001),…”
Foraging activity of roving herbivorous reef fish (Acanthuridae and Scaridae) in eastern Brazil: influence of resource availability and interference competition (2009, background): “…and terminal phase (TP) males (Robertson & Warner, 1978) were only made for Scarus zelindae, Sparisoma amplum and S. frondosum, as Scarus trispinosus shows no clear colour and morphological changes according to life phase (Moura et al., 2001) and no TP Sparisoma axillare individuals were recorded.”
Foraging activity and resource use by three parrotfish species at Fernando de Noronha Archipelago, tropical West Atlantic (2006, background): “One of this studies (McAfee and Morgan 1996) includes Sparisoma viride, S. rubripinne and S. chrysopterum, the three Caribbean species most closely related to their Brazilian counterparts, namely S. amplum, S. axillare and S. frondosum (Moura et al. 2001).”
