Butterflyfishes (family Chaetodontidae) are a highly conspicuous
component of fish fauna on coral reefs throughout the world. In
light of their strong dependence on coral, they are often regarded
as the epitome of coral reef fishes. This volume examines the
ecology and conservation of coral reef butterflyfishes. It provides
important insights on their evolution and key events and
adaptations that have led to their proliferation within coral reef
ecosystems. Key to the longevity of butterflyfishes is the
evolution of coral-feeding-a central focus of the ecological
chapters in this volume. The book also highlights key threats and
challenges related to the conservation of butterflyfishes and ends
with an overview of current and future research directions.
