The shape of success in a turbulent world: wave exposure filtering of coral reef herbivory (2017, background): “Feeding frequency, defined here as the total number of bites per hour and square metre of substratum available for herbivory (bites h 1 m 2), was quantified for all parrotfishes (Labridae of the subfamily Scarinae), surgeonfishes (Acanthuridae) and rabbitfishes (Siganidae) >5 cm in total length.”
Trophic structure patterns of Brazilian reef fishes: a latitudinal comparison (2004, background): “Fishes preying on mobile invertebrates are reported as the major trophic group on both tropical and temperate reefs (Ebeling & Hixon, 1991; Jones et al., 1991; Wainwright & Bellwood, 2002).”
Latitudinal gradients in Atlantic reef fish communities: trophic structure and spatial use patterns (2004, background): “Trophic strategies, food availability and spatial use habits certainly play an important role in shaping patterns of abundance and habitat distribution in fishes (Harmelin-Vivien, 1989; Bellwood et al., 2002; Wainwright & Bellwood, 2002).”
Nutritional ecology of marine herbivorous fishes: ten years on (2009, background): “We agree with Wainwright and Bellwood (2002) that understanding the functional differences in feeding ability between species greatly enhances our ability to predict responses in unstudied systems, and believe that the functional work on prey capture and handling serves as a useful framework in…”
Habitat preference of extant African bovids based on astragalus morphology: operationalizing ecomorphology for palaeoenvironmental reconstruction (2008, background): “Ecomorphology is an important field of research among organismal biologists studying extant and extinct vertebrates and invertebrates as well as plants (e.g., Aguirre et al., 2002; Arnold, 1983; Bock and von Wahlert, 1965; Garland and Losos, 1994; Hertel, 1994; Hertel and Ballance, 1999; Jones, 2003”
The meaning of the term ‘function’ in ecology: A coral reef perspective (2018, background): “The pioneering work of early 132 investigators has left a deep legacy of detailed information, particularly on the kinematics of 133 fish feeding and locomotion (reviewed in Wainwright & Bellwood 2002).”
