Seahorses, widely recognized as a unique genus within aquatic species, are exploited
globally across traditional medicine, aquarium, and curio industries. Notwithstanding their …

Biophysical dispersal models for marine fish larvae are widely used by marine ecologists
and managers of fisheries and marine protected areas to predict movement of larval fishes …

Dispersal is a key process shaping species population structure. In demersal marine fishes,
which usually have sedentary adult phases, dispersion relies on drifting larval stages …

This paper reviews progress in research on taxonomy and systematics of larval marine and
estuarine fishes in the Indo-Pacific since the first Indo-Pacific Fish Conference in 1981. In …

Historically, the mortality of early‐life stages of marine fishes was supposed to be mostly
caused by poor feeding during a critical period and aberrant drifting away from favorable …

Fluctuations in marine populations often relate to the supply of recruits by oceanic currents.
Variation in these currents is typically driven by large‐scale changes in climate, in particular …

Fish swimming capacity is a key life history trait critical to many aspects of their ecology. U-
crit (critical) swimming speeds provide a robust, repeatable relative measure of swimming …

For much of their pelagic larval dispersal (PLD) stage, larval perciform fishes are able to
directly influence their dispersal by horizontal swimming, but it is unclear which means of …

Most marine ecologists have in the past 25 years changed from supporting a passive-
dispersal paradigm for larval marine fishes to supporting a biophysical-dispersal paradigm …

Seahorses are poor swimmers, and their dispersion is a topic of increasing interest for their
conservation. In the present study, the swimming performance, ventilation, and feeding …
