South‐western Atlantic reef fishes: Zoogeographical patterns and ecological drivers reveal a secondary biodiversity centre in the Atlantic Ocean (2018, background): “The reef fish database was updated from Floeter et al. (2008) and Halpern and Floeter (2008).”
Habitat degradation increases functional originality in highly diverse coral reef fish assemblages (2016, background): “To date, most reports suggest that functional redundancy is rare in marine consumer assemblages, which instead spread their species across numerous complementary functional entities (Micheli and Halpern 2005, Halpern and Floeter 2008, Brandl and Bellwood 2014a).”
Biogeographical region and environmental conditions drive functional traits of estuarine fish assemblages worldwide (2017, methodology): “Each sample represents the total fish assemblage sampled in a given estuary and study | 5HENRIQUES Et al. categories (i.e. shallow, medium, deep and very deep as defined in Table 2 and adapted from Halpern & Floeter, 2008).”
Rare Species Support Vulnerable Functions in High-Diversity Ecosystems (2013, background): “This issue is even more critical in species-rich ecosystems where high functional redundancy among species is likely [32,33] and where it is thus often assumed that ecosystem functioning is buffered against species loss.”
The shape of success in a turbulent world: wave exposure filtering of coral reef herbivory (2017, background): “In this con- text, the relationship between herbivore diversity and func- tion in response to physical gradients has been the focus of extensive interest (McNaughton 1994; Steneck & Dethier 1994; Hooper & Vitousek 1997; Duffy 2002; Burkepile & Hay 2008; Halpern & Floeter 2008; Poore et al. 2012).”
From traits to life‐history strategies: Deconstructing fish community composition across European seas (2017, background): “Functional groups are defined as a unit of species 76 sharing similar trait-attributes, for example body size and trophic guild (e.g Halpern & Floeter 2008).”
Distributions of Indo-Pacific lionfishes Pterois spp. in their native ranges : implications for the Atlantic invasion (2012, methodology): “The proportions (relative to the total number of species) of Scorpaenidae (the family of lionfish) and other piscivore species were extracted from the same databases for the IndoPacific, and from a similar database for the Atlantic (Halpern & Floeter 2008).”
