Effectiveness of lionfish removal efforts in the Southern Caribbean (2013, background): “…fish (Albins & Hixon 2008, Morris & Akins 2009, Côté & Maljković 2010, Green et al. 2011, Muñoz et al. 2011, Layman & Allgeier 2012, Valdez-Moreno et al. 2012) and characterized by higher predation rates than similarly sized native predators with similar life-history characteristics (Albins 2013).”

Predatory fish invaders: Insights from Indo-Pacific lionfish in the western Atlantic and Caribbean (2013, background): “However, field experiments suggest that even with such dietary overlap, the presence of lionfish does not affect the growth rate of a similar-sized Atlantic fish predator, the coney grouper Cephalopholis fulva, where they co-occur, nor do coney affect lionfish growth (Albins, 2013).”
Non-linear effects of invasive lionfish density on native coral-reef fish communities (2015, background): “where a and b are species-specific constants obtained from the primary literature by Albins (2011), and L is the length of the individual fish.”
Ecological Impacts of Alien Species: Quantification, Scope, Caveats, and Recommendations (2015, background): “…volitans) and test how the impact of this species compares with that of the coney grouper (Cephalopholis fulva, a native predator of similar size and diet) showed that the alien species reduced the abundance and richness of small coral-reef fishes more than of the native predator (Albins 2013).”
