This chapter evaluates the degree to which basic reef fish ecology can help reef fish managers by reviewing key aspects of the life history of groupers. Ranging in size from 25 cm to over 3 m, groupers occur mostly in shallow water, with a few species occurring in depths as great as 30...
These alpine populations are declining in number and size. In contrast, C. atrofusca has a wide circumpolar distribution range and is abundant in large parts of the Arctic. The degree of genetic differentiation of the alpine populations and their importance for the conservation of the ...
the Neotropical humid montane forests, by assessing the degree of habitat restriction among species through the calculation of a numerical index, analysing their relationships with adjacent habitat, and exploring the relative contribution of both higher and lower habitats in shaping the avian assemblages....
