  • Cayman Islands Based on These Data and Survey Data from the Reef Environmental Education Foundation Database
    STATUS OF CORAL REEFS OF LITTLE CAYMAN AND GRAND CAYMAN, BRITISH WEST INDIES, IN 1999 (PART 2: FISHES) BY CHRISTY V. PATTENGILL-SEMMENS,1 and BRICE X. SEMMENS2 ABSTRACT The fish assemblages at 33 sites around the islands of Grand Cayman and Little Cayman were assessed in June 1999 for the Atlantic and Gulf Rapid Reef Assessment initiative using belt transects and Roving Diver Technique surveys. A comprehensive species list, with 58 new records, was compiled for the Cayman Islands based on these data and survey data from the Reef Environmental Education Foundation database. In general, the reefs on Little Cayman appeared to support larger and more individual fishes than those of Grand Cayman. A multidimensional scaling ordination plot showed no clear island pattern but did reveal that the windward or leeward location of each site was an important factor affecting fish community composition. All but two sites followed a pattern of distinct windward and leeward clusters, and these clusters also correlated to macroalgal abundance. The relationship between macroalgal abundance and herbivore density was analyzed and significant correlations were found with surgeonfishes (Acanthuridae) and parrotfishes (Scaridae) using multiple regression. INTRODUCTION Fishes have the potential to provide sensitive indices of reef health. Certain predatory fish species dominate the top of coral reef food webs, hence their density reflects a vast number of human and natural disturbances from habitat alteration to direct exploitation (Ferreira et al., 1998). Similarly, the presence and abundance of herbivorous fishes affect algal composition and cover (Ogden and Lobel, 1978). In response to concerns about the widespread deterioration of reef condition in the Caribbean basin, the Atlantic and Gulf Rapid Reef Assessment (AGRRA) initiative was designed to provide a regional perspective using a standardized methodology.

  • Below the Mesophotic C
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Below the Mesophotic C. C. Baldwin1, L. Tornabene2 & D. R. Robertson3 Mesophotic coral ecosystems, which occur at depths of ~40 to 150 m, have received recent scientifc attention as potential refugia for organisms inhabiting deteriorating shallow reefs. These ecosystems merit research in their own right, as they harbor both depth-generalist species and a distinctive reef-fsh Received: 31 August 2017 fauna. Reef ecosystems just below the mesophotic are globally underexplored, and the scant recent literature that mentions them often suggests that mesophotic ecosystems transition directly into Accepted: 12 February 2018 those of the deep sea. Through submersible-based surveys in the Caribbean Sea, we amassed the most Published: xx xx xxxx extensive database to date on reef-fsh diversity between ~40 and 309 m at any single tropical location. Our data reveal a unique reef-fsh assemblage living between ~130 and 309 m that, while taxonomically distinct from shallower faunas, shares strong evolutionary afnities with them. Lacking an existing name for this reef-faunal zone immediately below the mesophotic but above the deep aphotic, we propose “rariphotic.” Together with the “altiphotic,” proposed here for the shallowest reef-faunal zone, and the mesophotic, the rariphotic is part of a depth continuum of discrete faunal zones of tropical reef fshes, and perhaps of reef ecosystems in general, all of which warrant further study in light of global declines of shallow reefs. Studies of deep tropical-reef ecosystems have surged during the past decade1–10. This is due in part to the global decline of shallow coral reefs having sparked interest in the potential for deep reefs to act as refugia for shallow-water organisms stressed by warming surface waters or deteriorating reefs.

ZooKeys 638: 45–82. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.638.10455 Abstract The banded basslet, Lipogramma evides Robins & Colin, 1979, is shown to comprise two species: L. evides, which inhabits depths of 133–302 m, and a new species described here as Lipogramma levinsoni, which in- habits depths of 108–154 m and previously was considered to represent the juvenile of L. evides. A second new species of banded basslet, described here as Lipogramma haberi, inhabits depths of 152–233 m and was previously not reported in the literature. Morphologically, the three species differ in color patterns and modal numbers of gill rakers, whereas various other morphological features distinguish L.

  • Global Biogeographical Data Bases on Marine Fishes: Caveat Emptor
