Many fish species gather by the thousands and swim in harmony with seemingly no effort.
Large schools display a range of impressive collective behaviors, from simple shoaling to …

Evaluating artificial light as a bycatch reduction device (bycatch reduction light,“BRL”)
requires a multidisciplinary approach that applies knowledge of fisheries science, fishing …

Bioluminescence, the ability of organisms to produce visible light, has intrigued scientists for
centuries. Studies have examined bioluminescence, using a wide range of approaches and …

We propose a model for the structure formation of jellyfish swimming based on active
Brownian particles. We address the phenomena of counter-current swimming, avoidance of …

Around 30 species of marine bacteria can emit light, a critical characteristic in the oceanic
environment is mostly deprived of sunlight. In this article, we first review current knowledge …

Bacterial bioluminescent organs in fishes have a diverse range of tissues of origin, patterns
of compartmentalization, and associated light‐conducting structures. The morphology of the …

The flashlight fish Photoblepharon steinitzi inhabit coral reef caves in the Red Sea. During
the night they dwell alone or in pairs near their cave entrance, characteristic of territorial like …

Cases where animals use controlled illumination to improve vision are rare and thus far
limited to chemiluminescence, which only functions in darkness. This constraint was recently …

Biofluorescence has recently been reported to be phylogenetically widespread and
phenotypically variable across bony fishes, and is most common in tropical coral reef …

The schooling flashlight fish Anomalops katoptron can be found at dark nights at the water
surface in the Indo-Pacific. Schools are characterized by bioluminescent blink patterns of …
