Effects of invasive Pacific red lionfish Pterois volitans vs. a native predator on Bahamian coral-reef fish communities

Creator:: Albins, Mark A.
Abstract:: The recent irruption of Pacific red lionfish (Pterois volitans) on Caribbean and Atlantic coral reefs could prove to be one of the most damaging marine invasions to date. Invasive lionfish are reaching densities much higher than those reported from their native range, and they have a strong negative effect on...

Effects of the invasive Pacific red lionfish Pterois volitans on native Atlantic coral-reef fish communities

Creator:: Albins, Mark A.
Abstract:: Predatory lionfishes (Pterois volitans and P. miles) were introduced to Florida waters during the mid to late 1980s, and eventually established self-sustaining breeding populations in the tropical western Atlantic. These invasive species are now widespread along the southeastern seaboard of the United States, across the Caribbean Sea, and in the...

Behavior and Ecological Effects of Invasive Lionfish on Atlantic Coral Reefs and Seagrass Beds

Creator:: Benkwitt, Cassandra E.
Abstract:: Although only a minority of introduced species become established and have noticeable consequences in their new communities, some can displace native species, alter food webs, and cause local extinctions. Studying these invasive species can provide new insights into basic ecological questions as well as inform management strategies. Pacific lionfish (Pterois...

Interactions among Invasive Pacific Red Lionfish, Fish Parasites, and Cleaning Mutualisms Native to Atlantic Coral Reefs

Creator:: Tuttle, Lillian J.
Abstract:: What makes invasive species successful, and how do they affect native populations and communities? I addressed these key questions in the context of the invasion of Atlantic coral reefs by Pacific red lionfish (Pterois volitans). To assess the role of parasites in contributing to the success of this invasion, I...

Invasive Pacific Lionfish Alters Native Community Interactions on Atlantic Coral Reefs

Creator:: Kindinger, Tye L.
Abstract:: Biological invasions have been identified as one of the prominent drivers of global environmental change. In particular, invasive predators typically have substantial negative effects on populations of native prey, even driving species to extinction in extreme cases. However, beyond direct predatory effects, little is understood regarding the specific mechanisms by...

Density-Dependent Growth in Invasive Lionfish (Pterois volitans)

Creator:: Benkwitt, Cassandra E.
Abstract:: Direct demographic density dependence is necessary for population regulation and is a central concept in ecology, yet has not been studied in many invasive species, including any invasive marine fish. The red lionfish (Pterois volitans) is an invasive predatory marine fish that is undergoing exponential population growth throughout the tropical...

Worst case scenario: Potential long-term effects of invasive predatory lionfish (Pterois volitans) on Atlantic and Caribbean coral-reef communities

Creator:: Albins, Mark A. and Hixon, Mark A.
Abstract:: The Pacific red lionfish has recently invaded Western Atlantic and Caribbean coral reefs, and may become one of the most ecologically harmful marine fish introductions to date. Lionfish possess a broad suite of traits that makes them particularly successful invaders and strong negative interactors with native fauna, including defensive venomous...

Invasive red lionfish Pterois volitans blow directed jets of water at prey fish

Creator:: Albins, Mark A. and Lyons, Patrick J.
Abstract:: Field and laboratory observations of feeding by invasive Pacific red lionfish Pterois volitans were conducted during June through August of 2008, 2009 and 2010 near Lee Stocking Island, Bahamas. Observations of this invasive marine predator revealed a previously undocumented piscivorous behavior. While slowly approaching prey fish, lionfish produce jets of...

Low Susceptibility of Invasive Red Lionfish (Pterois volitans) to a Generalist Ectoparasite in Both Its Introduced and Native Ranges

Creator:: Sikkel, Paul C., Tuttle, Lillian J., Cure, Katherine, Coile, Ann Marie, and Hixon, Mark A.
Abstract:: Escape from parasites in their native range is one of many mechanisms that can contribute to the success of an invasive species. Gnathiid isopods are blood-feeding ectoparasites that infest a wide range of fish hosts, mostly in coral reef habitats. They are ecologically similar to terrestrial ticks, with the ability...

Habitat Use and Ecological Interactions of Invasive Lionfish in the Bahamas

Creator:: Davis, Alexandra C. D.
Abstract:: Invasive species are a growing global economic and ecological problem. Invasive Indo-Pacific lionfish (Pterois spp.) are known to have extreme negative effects on coral-reef communities in the Bahamas, so understating their distribution within and among reefs, what limits their local movements, and the effects they have on native prey species...
