Streszczenie:
Understanding patterns of species richness is a major goal for ecologists, especially in space-limited habitats where many organisms live on top of others (epibiosis, e.g. by algae growing on gastropods in marine environments). We tested the hypotheses that species richness of epiflora on the gastropod Turbo torquatus would not differ between regions with similarly rich algal floras, and that epifloral richness would increase with increasing gastropod size. Macroalgal floras of Hamelin Bay (HB), Marmion (M), Jurien Bay (JB) and Kalbarri (K), Western Australia, ranged from ∼20 to 40 species reef–1 (JB = HB = M ≥ K). Epiflora on small T. torquatus (shell area <150 cm2) did not differ among regions but epifloral richness increased with increasing basibiont size. Large T. torquatus (>150 cm2) were only found in Hamelin Bay and Marmion, where epifloral richness differed substantially. Epifloral richness was positively related to basibiont size in Marmion but not in Hamelin Bay. However, densities of patellid limpets on large T. torquatus were ∼4× higher in Hamelin Bay than in Marmion, implying that limpet grazing suppresses epifloral richness. Epifloral richness on turbinids is not simply associated with regional species pools or gastropod size; rather, biological interactions at the scale of individual basibionts apparently govern broad scale patterns of epibiosis.

Streszczenie:
The source of nutrients that sustains abundant benthic primary productivity on Western Australian coastal reef systems is unknown, but it is possible that cycling between organic matter production and remineralisation contributes and may be enhanced by variations in the magnitude of physical forcing. We have used a 5-year nitrate dataset collected at weekly, daily and hourly temporal scales to investigate dynamics and supply mechanisms in Marmion Lagoon, Perth, Western Australia. Nitrate concentrations were variable over short time scales (hours) and formed pulses of elevated nutrient concentrations. On average, nitrate concentrations were highest during the high energy winter period (June to August) and scant wave data (June to August 1984) suggest a general correlation between wave activity and nitrate concentration. While it was not possible to definitively link variations in nitrate to wave forcing, increased energy may have promoted carbon recycling and nitrate release (possibly through abrasion of macroalgae, resuspension of detrital material or enhanced pore water exchange). Rapid uptake suggests that the nitrate pulses observed here may help sustain primary productivity in this shallow high energy environment. High temporal (hourly) variability suggests future surveys must sample at a frequency adequate to isolate long-term temporal trends from short-term background variations.

Streszczenie:
Infauna are important in many ecological processes but have been rarely considered in biodiversity assessments of coral reefs and surrounding areas. We surveyed infaunal assemblages and associated environmental factors (depth, seabed reflectance, sediment characteristics) in three areas (Mandu, Point Cloates, Gnaraloo) along the Carnarvon Shelf, Western Australia. This region supports Ningaloo Reef, a relatively pristine coral reef protected by the Ningaloo Marine Park and a Commonwealth marine reserve. Macrofauna were sampled with a Smith-McIntyre grab and sieved through 500 µm. A total of 423 species and 4036 individuals was recorded from 145 grabs, with infauna accounting for 67% of species and 78% of individuals. Rare species (≤2 individuals per species) represented 42% of the total assemblage. Assemblages were significantly different among all three areas, with the most distinct recorded from the southern-most area (Gnaraloo). Although assemblages varied significantly with depth and sediment composition (mud and gravel), these relationships were weak. Results from the current study broadly quantify macrofaunal diversity in the region and identify potential spatial and environmental patterns which will help inform future marine management plans, including the provision of baseline information to assess the efficacy of protected areas in soft-sediment habitats adjacent to coral reefs.

Aerial surveys between 1989 and 1992 demonstrated that large numbers of whale sharks appear on Ningaloo Reef in north-western Australia during autumn, shortly after the coral has undergone mass spawning. This movement into the reef waters would allow whale sharks to capitalize on the increased production of zooplankton brought about as a result of this mass spawning of corals and other marine organisms. Sharks occupied mainly the relatively turbid waters on the reef front, where a northerly current prevailed, rather than the offshore, warmer waters of the southerly flowing Leeuwin Current. The sharks moved in to the reef front from offshore but, once inshore, the majority swam parallel to the reef. The maximum density in any sector of the reef at any one time was four sharks per km, recorded in May 1992. The longer the time since sharks first appeared on the reef, the greater was their tendency to aggregate in a particular region of the reef. Evidence is presented that indicates that whale shark numbers at the northern end of Ningaloo Reef declined during the latter half of the 1980s; this decline may be related to the massive destruction of coral by the gastropod mollusc Drupella cornus during this period.

The first successful trials with stationary 'crest' nets to monitor the nocturnal fluxes of larval fish crossing reef margins in both eastern and western Australia are described. Lengthy deployments were possible on Ningaloo Reef, north-western Australia, because that system is topographically suitable: i.e. a fringing barrier reef where surf produces a constant flow into a coastal lagoon. Sampling on 85 nights between October 1994 and March 1995 revealed a rich larval fish fauna (56474 individuals) dominated by pelagic juveniles nearing settlement stage. Variations in the daily catches of replicate nets (200 m apart) were highly correlated, showing the suitability of this technique for monitoring larval supply. Another trial (five nights) was made at One Tree Reef, southern Great Barrier Reef. On nocturnal flood tides, when rising water first spilled into the lagoon, triplicate nets caught many presettlement fish (47797 individuals) in this flow. The behaviour of some taxa clearly assisted their transport through the surf. Despite the successful short-term deployments at One Tree, there may be limited potential to deploy this gear elsewhere on the Great Barrier Reef because of unsuitable flow regimes.

Hydroacoustic surveys were used to examine zooplankton distributions in coastal waters off Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia. Surveys were timed to coincide with the seasonal aggregation of whale sharks, Rhincodon typus, and other large zooplanktivores in these waters. The surveys examined scattering features of lagoon/shelf fronts, a series of cross-shelf transects and waters surrounding whale sharks swimming at the surface. These suggested that lagoon waters flow intrusively into shelf waters at reef passages in a layered exchange. Cross-shelf transects identified three vertical scattering layers: a surface bubble layer; a near-surface minimum layer; and a bottom maximum layer. Regions of intense mixing of lagoon and shelf waters were detected seaward and to the north of reef passages. Integrated acoustic mean volume backscatter of the bottom maximum layer increased with depth and distance offshore. Large subsurface aggregations of unidentified fauna were detected beneath whale sharks in the same area that manta rays and surface schools of euphausiids were also observed.

Bioregional categorisation of the Australian marine environment is essential to conserve and manage entire ecosystems, including the biota and associated habitats. It is important that these regions are optimally positioned to effectively plan for the protection of distinct assemblages. Recent climatic variation and changes to the marine environment in Southwest Australia (SWA) have resulted in shifts in species ranges and changes to the composition of marine assemblages. The goal of this study was to determine if the current bioregionalisation of SWA accurately represents the present distribution of shallow-water reef fishes across 2000 km of its subtropical and temperate coastline. Data was collected in 2015 using diver-operated underwater stereo-video surveys from 7 regions between Port Gregory (north of Geraldton) to the east of Esperance. This study indicated that (1) the shallow-water reef fish of SWA formed 4 distinct assemblages along the coast: one Midwestern, one Central and 2 Southern Assemblages; (2) differences between these fish assemblages were primarily driven by sea surface temperature, Ecklonia radiata cover, non-E. radiata (canopy) cover, understorey algae cover, reef type and reef height; and (3) each of the 4 assemblages were characterised by a high number of short-range Australian and Western Australian endemic species. The findings from this study suggest that 4, rather than the existing 3 bioregions would more effectively capture the shallow-water reef fish assemblage patterns, with boundaries having shifted southwards likely associated with ocean warming.

Abstract Jackson, G. D., Meekan, M. G., Wotherspoon, S., and Jackson, C. H. 2008. Distributions of young cephalopods in the tropical waters of Western Australia over two consecutive summers. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 65: 140–147. Cephalopod paralarvae and juveniles were sampled with light traps deployed at the surface and deeper in the southern NW Shelf and on Ningaloo Reef off Western Australia during two consecutive summers. One cross shelf transect (Exmouth) was sampled in the late spring and summers of 1997/1998 (summer 1) and 1998/1999 (summer 2), and a second cross shelf transect (Thevenard) and a longshore transect (Ningaloo) along the Ningaloo Reef were sampled in summer 2. Species captured in the order of abundance were octopods, Photololigo sp., Sepioteuthis lessoniana, and Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis. Most were captured in shallow traps except for Photololigo sp., which was common in both shallow and deep traps with larger animals found in deeper water. The presence of Idiosepius pygmaeus in deep water off Ningaloo Reef revealed the species to be eurytopic, inhabiting a wider range of habitats than previously known. Photololigo sp. and S. lessoniana were more abundant inshore, and octopods were especially abundant on mid-depth stations of the Exmouth transect, probably because of the turbulent mixing and increased productivity there. Fewer S. oualaniensis were caught during the first summer on the Ningaloo transect (n = 5) than during the second summer (n = 79).

Differences in the diversity of fish species between granite and limestone reefs, as well as high- and low-relief limestone reefs, were investigated at Hamelin Bay, south-western Australia. It was found that there were significant differences in the presence and abundance of fish species between granite reefs and limestone reefs. Granite reefs were characterized by greater numbers of Coris auricularis (western king wrasse) and Parma mccullochi (common scalyfin), whereas limestone reefs had greater numbers of the fish species Odax cyanomelas (herring cale), Pempheris klunzingeri (rough bullseye) and Kyphosus sydneyanus (common buffalo bream). A significant difference in fish diversity was also found between high-relief and low-relief limestone reefs in the same area. More species were found on the high-relief reefs than low-relief reefs. Complementing differences in fish assemblages, significant differences were found in algal assemblages from the different habitats. This was mainly owing to a dominance of Ecklonia radiata on low-relief limestone reefs. Ecklonia radiata was less dominant on granite reefs and on high-relief limestone reefs, where there was a lower overall algal biomass and a higher total number of species.

Understanding the residency and movement patterns of major consumers, such as lobsters, in coastal waters is important for the management of coastal habitats and their fisheries. In the present study, we tagged 34 Panulirus cygnus with acoustic transmitters on a shallow coastal reef in south-western Australia and monitored their movements using fixed and manual receivers between November and May 2005–2006 and 2006–2007. We determined the proportion of ‘white’ (migratory-phase) lobsters emigrating from the reef between November and January and also characterised the large-scale movements of ‘red’ (residential-phase) and white lobsters. We undertook tank experiments to determine the effect of tagging and handling on P. cygnus behaviour. Counter to our expectation, 50% of white lobsters were detected on the reef after the migration period, whereas only a small proportion (13.6%) of white lobsters were tracked leaving the reef and only one individual displayed directional offshore movement. This limited movement indicates that coastal no-take zones may build up legal-sized 4–5+ year old lobsters because many of these are likely to remain resident over the migration season. Laboratory experiments and field observations suggest that tagging and handling affect lobster behaviour and movement for a few days post tagging, potentially confounding conclusions on dispersal and movement patterns in some studies.

SCUBA divers surveyed populations of juvenile Panulirus cygnus on limestone reefs at Seven Mile Beach and Cliff Head, Western Australia, between 1987 and 1989. Estimates of the density and size structure of populations of early-juvenile P. cygnus had high precision, but their accuracy was lower because visual surveys underestimated the population size. Nevertheless, these estimates may be useful indices of puerulus settlement and the growth, habitat use and population densities of juvenile P. cygnus. Puerulus settlement on collectors correlated well with natural densities of early juveniles on reefs. Densities of juveniles were at least three times greater at Seven Mile Beach than at Cliff Head. However, juveniles grew faster at Cliff Head than at Seven Mile Beach. The density of juveniles in reef ledges was twice that in caves; the density in caves was 10 times that on the reef face.

Five of the species represent new records for Australia: P. azumanus, P. kamii, P. megalophthalmus, P. melanesius and S. barroi. Previous records of P. megalophthalmus from the North West Shelf are based on misidentified specimens of P. lasti. Records of P. wheeleri from the North West Shelf are based on specimens here identified as P. mcgroutheri n. sp. A record of P. yamakawai Yoshino from Christmas Island is based on a misidentified specimen of P. kamii. Plectranthias retrofasciatus was previously recorded from the Great Barrier Reef as P. pallidus Randall & Hoese, here shown to be a junior synonym of P. retrofasciatus. Video-based records of P. kelloggi from the Great Barrier Reef appear to be based on P. retrofasciatus. Identification keys, diagnoses, character summaries, photographs and Australian distribution information are presented for all species. Full descriptions are provided for the new species and for those newly recorded from Australia.

The cyanobacteriosponge Terpios hoshinota has been reported throughout the Indo-Pacific including the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. The species encrusts live coral, giant clams, and other benthos and can be a threat to benthic communities on coral reefs. The Kimberley region of Western Australia has some of the least impacted reefs globally. We report for the first time the presence of T. hoshinota in the eastern Indian Ocean on Kimberley inshore coral reefs. Given its invasive potential, reef health surveys should include this species, and monitoring approaches developed to audit the remote Kimberley for this and other invasive species.

The third in a series of five-yearly aerial surveys for dugongs in Shark Bay, Ningaloo Reef and Exmouth Gulf was conducted in July 1999. The first two surveys provided evidence of an apparently stable population of dugongs, with ~1000 animals in each of Exmouth Gulf and Ningaloo Reef, and 10 000 in Shark Bay. We report estimates of less than 200 for each of Exmouth Gulf and Ningaloo Reef and ~14 000 for Shark Bay. This is an apparent overall increase in the dugong population over this whole region, but with a distributional shift of animals to the south. The most plausible hypothesis to account for a large component of this apparent population shift is that animals in Exmouth Gulf and Ningaloo Reef moved to Shark Bay, most likely after Tropical Cyclone Vance impacted available dugong forage in the northern habitat. Bias associated with survey estimate methodology, and normal changes in population demographics may also have contributed to the change. The movement of large numbers of dugongs over the scale we suggest has important management implications. First, such habitat-driven shifts in regional abundance will need to be incorporated in assessing the effectiveness of marine protected areas that aim to protect dugongs and their habitat. Second, in circumstances where aerial surveys are used to estimate relative trends in abundance of dugongs, animal movements of the type we propose could lead to errors in interpretation.

We recognize seven species in this group, five of which are described here. Priolepis profunda (Weber) occurs in central Indonesia and western Australia; P. anthioides (Smith) is known only from Zanzibar; P. aithiops n.sp. and P. sticta n.sp. are known only from Flores, Indonesia; P. fallacincta n.sp. occurs fairly widely in the western Pacific from Taiwan to Fiji and the Great Barrier Reef; P. randalli n.sp. is present in the Persian Gulf (and probably the Red Sea); and Priolepis RW sp. 8, to be described by other workers, is known from Japan through to western Australia, the Great Barrier Reef, and New Caledonia. The monotypic Egglestonichthys (known from a single specimen from the South China Sea) exhibits all the defining characteristics of Priolepis, and represents the plesiomorphic sister-group of either Priolepis, if the latter proves to be monophyletic, or of a monophyletic group composed of Priolepis, Trimma, Trimmatom, Paratrimma, and possibly some other genera. The entire clade is defined by two autapomorphies: loss of the cephalic sensory canals and associated pores, and a broad gill opening extending anteroventrally to below at least the vertical limb of the preopercle.

Strip-transect aerial surveys of Shark Bay, Ningaloo Reef and Exmouth Gulf were conducted during the winters of 1989 and 1994. These surveys were designed primarily to estimate the abundance and distribution of dugongs, although they also allowed sea turtles and dolphins, and, to a lesser extent, whales, manta rays and whale sharks to be surveyed. Shark Bay contains a large population of dugongs that is of international significance. Estimates of approximately 10000 dugongs resulted from both surveys. The density of dugongs is the highest recorded in Australia and the Middle East, where these surveys have been conducted. Exmouth Gulf and Ningaloo Reef are also important dugong habitats, each supporting in the order of 1000 dugongs. The estimated number of turtles in Shark Bay is comparable to the number in Exmouth Gulf plus Ningaloo Reef (7000–9000). The density of turtles in Ningaloo Reef and, to a lesser extent, Exmouth Gulf is exceptionally high compared with most other areas that have been surveyed by the same technique. Shark Bay supports a substantial population of bottlenose dolphins (2000–3000 minimum estimate). Exmouth Gulf and Ningaloo Reef were not significant habitats for dolphins during the winter surveys. Substantial numbers of whales (primarily humpbacks) and manta rays occur in northern and western Shark Bay in winter. Ningaloo Reef is an important area for whale sharks and manta rays in autumn and winter. The Shark Bay Marine Park excludes much of the winter habitats of the large vertebrate fauna of Shark Bay. In 1989 and 1994, more than half of all the dugongs were seen outside the Marine Park (57·4 and 50·7%, respectively). Approximately one-third to one-half of turtles and dolphins were seen outside the Marine Park (in 1989 and 1994 respectively: turtles, 43 and 27%; dolphins, 47 and 32%). Almost all the whales and most of the manta rays were seen outside the Marine Park. Expansion of the Shark Bay Marine Park, to bring it into alignment with the marine section of the Shark Bay World Heritage Area, would facilitate the appropriate management of these populations. This would also simplify the State– Commonwealth collaboration necessary to meet the obligations of World Heritage listing. The coastal waters of Western Australia north of the surveyed area (over 6000 km of coastline) are relatively poorly known and surveys of their marine megafauna are required for wise planning and management.

Most of the world’s tropical coastal and shelf areas are heavily affected by anthropogenic activities, but the north-west shelf of Australia is considered a ‘very low-impact’ area. The role of herbivory on coral reefs is recognised, but most of that research comes from reefs with considerable land-based impacts. In this study we sampled the teleost community and evaluated herbivory on the reef platform at Browse Island, a small isolated island 200km off north-western Australia, using several approaches: (1) tethering of macroalgae; (2) herbivore exclosures; and (3) video footage. In total, 99 teleost species from 26 families were identified. Turf algal consumption was evident and 18 teleost turf consumers were identified. In contrast, no evidence was found of herbivory on large macroalgae, and browsers, the only group able to consume macroalgae, were represented by just four species all belonging to the genus Naso. The lack of diversity among these specialist herbivores may be a consequence of the small surface area of the reef and the distance to other emergent reefs. Based on a model of top-down control of macroalgae, the reef is potentially vulnerable to disturbance. Small isolated reefs can have low resilience despite having low impacts from land.

The genus Lanocira Hansen, 1890 is recorded from the southwestern Pacific for the first time. Lanocira grebarree sp. nov. from the Great Barrier Reef is described, and Lanocira gardineri Stebbing, 1904 and Lanocira sp. cf. anasicula Jones, 1982 are recorded from the Great Barrier Reef and Hibernia Reef, in the Timor Sea off Western Australia, respectively. Lanocira grebarree sp. nov. can be identified by the anteriorly rounded, upturned and short rostral process in males in combination with the lack of stiff setae on the dorsal surface of the pleotelson. The similar L. gardineri Stebbing, 1904 is distinguished from L. grebarree sp. nov. by the presence of stiff hyaline setae on the dorsal surface of the pleotelson. A key is provided to the Australian species of Lanocira.

A survey to determine the distribution and abundance of New Zealand fur seals, Arctocephalus forsteri, in South Australia and Western Australia was conducted in January-March 1990. Minor surveys were conducted in the summers of 1987-88, 1988-89 and 1990-91. Although the surveys were primarily of black pups in breeding colonies, opportunity was taken to count fur seals of all age-classes, including those in non-breeding colonies. Pups were counted and, in more accessible and larger colonies, numbers of pups were estimated by a mark-recapture technique. The latter technique gave higher estimates than counting, and was considered more accurate. In South Australia, the seals extend from The Pages in Backstairs Passage to Nuyts Reef in the Great Australian Bight. In Western Australia, the range comprised islands on the south coast from the Recherche Archipelago to islands near Cape Leeuwin. There are 29 breeding localities; 13 are in South Australia and 16 in Western Australia. Eighteen of these have not been reported previously. The term ''breeding locality'' is used for aggregations of breeding colonies as well as for isolated breeding colonies. Estimates of the number of pups for the 1989-90 breeding season were 5636 in South Australia and 1429 in Western Australia. This leads to a population estimate of approximately 34600 seals in these two states (using a multiplier of 4.9). But such estimates of overall abundance must be treated cautiously as the multiplier incorporates estimates of population parameters not available for A. forsteri. Most of the population (77%) is in central South Australian waters (from Kangaroo Island to the southern end of Eyre Peninsula). With the estimate of 100 for a breeding colony in southern Tasmania, the population of New Zealand fur seals in Australia can be estimated at 34700. Historical aspects of some colonies are outlined and evidence for increases described. The largest breeding localities are at South Neptune Islands (1964 pups) and North Neptune Islands (1472). The combined Neptunes group accounts for 49% of the pup estimate for Australia. One-fifth of the pups are from colonies on Kangaroo Island and the nearby Casuarinas.

During the 2002 austral summer abnormally high sea-surface temperatures (SST) occurred in the southern Great Barrier Reef (GBR), Australia. This phenomenon was accompanied by reduced provisioning, decreased growth rates and reproductive failure of wedge-tailed shearwaters in the region. In 2002, adults were unable to compensate for changes in either the availability and/or accessibility of forage-fish by increasing food loads or foraging rates. This is one of few studies to explicitly correlate decreases in chick provisioning with above-average annual variation in SST and is the first to do so for a tropical seabird species in the western Pacific. It adds to an increasing number of data sets identifying the potential negative impacts of increasing SST at upper-trophic levels. As SST continue to rise with global climate change, our results predict substantial detrimental effects on seabird populations of the GBR. This finding has important implications for both seabird and coral reef ecosystem management in the region. Our results also suggest that wedge-tailed shearwaters are sensitive indicators to changes in forage-fish availability/accessibility associated with SST variation that can be used to develop models of, and monitor for, these potential impacts.

The taxonomy of the Gyliauchenidae Fukui, 1929 (Digenea) has been confounded historically by 2 main factors: difficulty in specimen preparation and varying opinion as to the consistency of morphological characters, such as the morphology of the oesophagus and the position of the ovary. Distinction between Flagellotrema Ozaki, 1936 and Gyliauchen Nicoll, 1915 has been blurred by overlap in the diagnoses of these genera. Here we provide a diagnosis for Flagellotrema, definitively separating it from Gyliauchen. We define Flagellotrema as possessing an oesophagus with at least 1 loop, an intertesticular ovary, and a cilia-like lining of the genital atrium, and also by the position of the genital pore definitely posterior to the intestinal bifurcation. We redescribe the type-species, Flagellotrema convolutum Ozaki, 1936 from Prionurus scalprum (Acanthuridae) from Japanese waters, based on our examination of type material and the literature, and describe 2 new cryptic species from acanthuroid fishes of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Flagellotrema amphitrite n. sp. is described from Prionurus maculatus from Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia and Flagellotrema reburrus is described from Siganus punctatus (Siganidae) from the same location. We also record F. reburrus from 3 other species of Siganus, S. corallinus, S. doliatus and S. vulpinus from Heron and Lizard Islands, Australia. Distinction between F. amphitrite and F. reburrus is difficult, and is based on the combination of morphometric data and sequence data from ITS2 and 28S (D1–D3) rDNA and ND1 mtDNA genes. We provide a taxonomic key to species of Flagellotrema and discuss the taxonomy and biogeography of the group. The description of 2 new species from acan-thuroid fishes on the Great Barrier Reef, Australia, expands the geographic range of Flagellotrema from Japan to the greater western Pacific Ocean.

The present study assessed variation in the abundances of large herbivorous invertebrates in south-western Australia. There was some habitat partitioning between different parts of the reef: of the most frequently recorded species, the sea urchins Phyllacanthus irregularis and Centrostephanus tenuispinus were found primarily at the base of steep rock faces, whereas the gastropods Turbo torquatus and Australium squamifera were found primarily on open sections of reef. The sea urchin Heliocidaris erythrogramma was evenly distributed between these two habitats. For C. tenuispinus and H. erythrogramma, differences among locations (separated by tens to hundreds of kilometers) were the main source of variation in abundances. Phyllacanthus irregularis was more evenly distributed among locations. Abundances of sea urchins at each reef varied little over 26 months, suggesting low mortality and low recruitment. Turbo torquatus and A. squamifera varied significantly in abundance among reefs separated by < 10 km, although these differences were influenced by fluctuations over time. Broad patterns in abundances were evident: overall, abundances of herbivorous invertebrates were low, but certain areas supported high abundances. This suggests that herbivory may be a minor process in this region; however, the importance of herbivory at reefs with and without high abundances of herbivores deserves further attention.

The effects of marine reserve protection on the density, size, biomass, sex-ratio and overall assemblage structure of reef fishes were investigated at Kingston Reef Sanctuary, Rottnest Island, Western Australia. Significant trends in response to reserve protection were found for two species of top predators and several serially protogynous labrid species. The relative density and biomass of the heavily targeted Glaucosoma hebraicum was 10 and five times greater within the sanctuary respectively. Similarly, the biomass of the serranid, Epinephelides armatus, was 3.2 times greater in the sanctuary, although this difference was owing to a greater mean length not relative density. The male : female sex ratio for the labrid, Ophthalmolepis lineolatus, was significantly different between sanctuary and non-sanctuary sites, with the density of male O. lineolatus significantly greater within the sanctuary. Rottnest Island waters are largely restricted to recreational fishing, therefore these results suggest that a range of fish species around Rottnest Island are affected by recreational fishing, and that these effects are found in taxa beyond the primary target species. The patterns in the effects on bycatch species suggest that fishing-related mortality may be exerting a greater control on these populations than that exerted by natural predation.
