This review discusses the major factors producing spatial and temporal patterns in
abundance and the structure of reef fish populations in north‐eastern New Zealand. It also …

Reef fish abundances were sampled at 11 shallow reef localities extending over 1000 km of
coastline in northern New Zealand. Sampling was restricted to the 4–10-m depth stratum …

The gut contents of 50 species of fish that inhabit coastal rocky reefs of north‐eastern New
Zealand were examined. Most of the fish were collected in the vicinity of Goat Island, north of …

The fish communities occupying a natural reef site and an artificial reef site near the mouth
of Botany Bay, a marine-dominated estuary in southeastern Australia, were assessed by a …

Reef-associated fishes can respond to changes in habitat structure and the nature of their
response can change with different spatial scales of observation. A structured hierarchical …

Estimates of the population and standing cron of fishes were made in six selected transect
areas around Goat Island (174° 47'50” E, 36° 16'10” S), a typical rocky reef area on the coast …

The influence of temperate rocky reef habitat factors on associated fish assemblages is
poorly understood. In particular, the effect of depth on fish abundance and species …

Cryptic fish assemblages on temperate rocky reefs in New Zealand are among the most
diverse in the world, yet very little is known regarding ecological processes that may affect …

ABSTMT: Broad-scale distribution patterns of planktivorous reef fish were described using
visual counts daag 100 km of the coast of Northland, New Zealand: including sampling at …

Patterns of rocky reef fish assemblages (composition and relative abundance of species)
were examined to provide data on the design of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), which aim …
