Abiotic factors often have a large influence on the habitat use of animals in shallow marine environments. Specifically, tides may alter the physical and biological characteristics of an ecosystem while changes in temperature can cause ectothermic sp

Information on the spatial ecology of batoids is lacking despite the need for this information for effective management and conservation of this vulnerable faunal group. We used acoustic telemetry to monitor the presence of dasyatids (Pastinachus ate

Marine protected areas (MPAs) can provide distinct conservation benefits for threatened species, particularly in regions where there is a lack of population assessments. The St. Joseph Atoll, Seychelles, has been under consideration for MPA designati

Most batoids are mesopredators and are often hypothesised to play important ecological roles. However, a comprehensive understanding into these roles remains limited given the paucity of information of their trophic habits. St. Joseph Atoll ( $$5.43^

Fifty-five juvenile porcupine ray Urogymnus asperrimus were collected in the isolated St Joseph Atoll, Seychelles. Stomach contents were sampled using non-lethal gastric lavage to determine the dietary composition, degree of prey selectivity and whet

Reef fish occupy numerous functional groups and play integral roles in maintaining the health of coral reef ecosystems. However, the management and conservation of these fish groups, and thus coral reefs, are hindered by a paucity of information rega

Ecklonia maxima dominates kelp beds on the west coast of southern Africa, and is commercially and ecologically valuable. Some plants lose all their secondary blades (fronds), leaving only the gas-filled bulb and short primary blade at the top of the

Understanding the trophic interactions of ecologically important mesopredators such as Myliobatiformes (stingrays) is vital, but, given their susceptibility to overexploitation, the collection of stomach contents for dietary analysis necessitates the
