Amphidromy is a distinctive form of diadromy that involves some fish, decapod crustaceans
and gastropod molluscs. Characteristic elements in amphidromy are: reproduction in fresh …

Tropical, high islands of the Pacific have developed unique freshwater fish faunas that are
currently threatened by a range of human activities. This paper documents distinct …

Amphidromous fishes are found predominantly on the tropical and subtropical islands of the
globe and there are few amphidromous species on continents. I suggest that this …

In many ways, this book is the culmination of more than four decades of my exp-ration of the
taxonomy, biogeography and ecology of New Zealand's quite small freshwater fish fauna. I …

The downstream migration to sea of newly-hatched larvae of amphidromous fishes exposes
them to the risk of irreversible starvation if migration takes too long. Some fishes, especially …

The freshwater stream fauna of tropical oceanic islands is dominated by amphidromous
species, whose larvae are transported to the ocean and develop in the plankton before …

Island freshwater habitats are colonised by amphidromous fish, which display an oceanic
larval phase while the rest of their life cycle takes place in rivers. In the present study we …

Abstract In the Indo-Pacific region, rivers are inhabited by amphidromous gobies. They are
often subjected to a heavy fishing pressure, highlighting the urgent need to acquire …

The 2 amphidromous gobiids Sicyopterus lagocephalus and Cotylopus acutipinnis from La
Réunion Island (Mascarene archipelago, south-western Indian Ocean) are heavily exploited …

Understanding migratory life histories is critical for the effective management and
conservation of migratory species. However, amphidromous migrations (fish hatch in …
