CoRAl-ASSoCIATED INvERTEbRATES: DIvERSITy, EColoGICAl IMPoRTANCE AND vulNERAbIlITy To DISTuRbANCE (2011, background): “Furthermore, it is likely that there are multiple causes for outbreaks (Pratchett 2005), which may also vary regionally.”
Changes in Biodiversity and Functioning of Reef Fish Assemblages following Coral Bleaching and Coral Loss (2011, background): “other non-coral prey) is highly variable [60], such that most studies distinguish between those fishes that feed exclusively on live corals (obligate corallivores) versus those fishes that only partly or occasionally consume corals (facultative corallivores) [60].”
Climate change and the future for coral reef fishes (2008, background): “Coral-dependent species include obligate coral dwellers (Munday et al. 1997; Gardiner and Jones 2005), corallivores (Pratchett 2005) and species that always settle into live coral (Booth and Wellington 1998; Öhman et al. 1998; Holbrook et al. 2000).”
Coral mortality versus structural collapse as drivers of corallivorous butterflyfish decline (2009, methodology): “…abundance of facultative corallivores and coral cover highlights the high level of feeding versatility in these species, many of which satisfy their dietary requirements by feeding on algae and motile invertebrates (HarmelinVivien and Bouchon-Navaro 1981; Harmelin-Vivien 1989; Pratchett 2005).”
Trade-offs associated with dietary specialization in corallivorous butterflyfishes (Chaetodontidae: Chaetodon) (2008, background): “While competitive exclusion (Berumen and Pratchett 2006b) may play a role in prey selection, subtle partitioning of the convergent diets of coral-feeding butterflyfishes (Pratchett 2005) may be partly responsible for the ability of C.”
Early post-settlement mortality and the structure of coral assemblages (2010, background): “Relative contributions of families in 58 Penin et al.: Early post-settlement mortality of corals the adult assemblage were very similar to those of the juvenile assemblage (respectively, Pocilloporidae: 30.7 and 30.3%, Acroporidae: 25.2 and 26.9%, Poritidae: 14.1 and 13.0%), but the recruit assembla”
Multiple disturbances and the global degradation of coral reefs: are reef fishes at risk or resilient? (2006, background): “…versatile and opportunistic in their use of available resources (Pratchett et al., 2001; Bellwood et al., 2003), there is increasing evidence that some fishes are highly specialized in their use of certain prey (Pratchett, 2005) and/or habitat types (Munday et al., 1997; Gardiner & Jones, 2005).”
Habitat associations of juvenile versus adult butterflyfishes (2008, background): “For example, many butterflyfishes feed primarily (if not exclusively) on living tissue from scleractinian and alcyonacean corals (Pratchett 2005), and these species are generally more abundant in locations or habitats with greatest availability of prey resources (Findley and Findley 1985; Roberts…”
Recovery without resilience: persistent disturbance and long-term shifts in the structure of fish and coral communities at Tiahura Reef, Moorea (2006, background): “Few butterXyWsh consume or prefer Porites spp. (Pratchett 2005) and it is therefore unlikely that these corals inXuence butterXyWsh communities as much as Acropora spp. and Pocillipora spp. Likewise, non-corallivorous butterXyWshes, such as C. auriga, C. ephippium, C. vagabundus, and Forcipiger…”
Maintenance of fish diversity on disturbed coral reefs (2009, background): “The coral-dependent fishes included only those species that are obligate coral feeders (Pratchett 2005) or that have strong habitat associations with live coral (Wilson et al. 2008), herein referred to as coral-based feeders, whilst EAMfeeders included the functional groups: detritivores,…”
Declines in the abundance of Chaetodon butterflyfishes following extensive coral depletion (2006, background): “trifascialis, which is the most specialist corallivorous butterflyfish (Pratchett, 2005), and C.”
Exploitation and habitat degradation as agents of change within coral reef fish communities (2008, background): “, 2006) were categorized as coral dependant, which included obligate coral feeders (Pratchett, 2005), but excluded facultative coral feeders.”
Trophic niches of thirteen damselfishes (Pomacentridae) at the Grand Récif of Toliara, Madagascar (2009, background): “For instance, extensive evidence of trophic adaptations and wide diversity in diet were highlighted in Labridae (Wainwright 1988; Wainwright et al. 2004) and Chaetodontidae (Motta 1988; Ferry-Graham et al. 2001; Pratchett 2005 ).”
