Amphidromous gobioid fishes have colonized streams on tropical and subtropical volcanic
islands across the globe. Such streams are often characterized by steep gradients, high …

Amphidromy is a life history relating to an otherwise freshwater organism that spends a short
pelagic larval period in the ocean. Frequent long distance dispersal during this larval period …

As is typical of aquatic macrofauna on tropical and subtropical montane islands, Hawaii's
native stream fauna exhibit a migratory life cycle. In this life cycle, called amphidromy, newly …

Migratory fishes can be threatened by conditions encountered along dispersal pathways that
impede access to feeding or breeding grounds. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that …

Behavior plays an important role in mediating relationships between morphology and
performance in animals and, thus, can influence how selection operates. However, to what …

Distributions of Hawaiian stream fishes are typically interrupted by waterfalls that divide
streams into multiple segments. Larvae hatch upstream, are flushed into the ocean, and …

Introduced freshwater fishes impact native Hawaiian stream fishes in two important ways. In
addition to direct negative effects associated factors such as predation, competition, and …

Sediment samples from approximately 100 submarine caves on tropical islands in the
Indian, Pacific and Atlantic oceans were examined to elucidate the global diversity and …

Diadromy, broadly defined here as the regular movement between freshwater and marine
habitats at some time during their lives, characterizes numerous fish and invertebrate taxa …

Abstract In 1966, island biogeographer Sherwin Carlquist published a list of 24 principles
governing long-distance dispersal and evolution on islands. The 24 principles describe …
