“…Although adherence to a strategy of vertical migration appears to be a prominent feature of young fish behavior under a wide range of hydrological conditions, such behavior does not appear to be fixed, or under the control of a tidal endogenous rhythm (Forward 1988;Forward et al 1998). Rather, polymorphic cohorts may undergo rapid selection for successful strategies, or individual fishes may retain the ability to switch strategies under consistent exogenous cues including tidal velocity and light (Boehlert and Mundy 1988;Neilson and Perry 1990). Although evidence for position maintenance strategies can be intermittent among sites (Forward et al 1998), or slightly modified (from a semidiel to diel pattern, Stephenson and Power 1989), rarely have fish larvae been observed to adopt distinct strategies potentially switching or undergoing selection for tidal versus diel cues.…”

“…Thus, in descending below the thermocline after filling their stomachs, larger mackerel larvae might not only benefit from reduced predation pressure by conspecifics but also by gaining bioenergetic advantages for better survival. However, in a review study on the motivation of vertical migration behavior, Neilson and Perry (1990) discussed the possibilities of a bioenergetic advantage in migrating to cooler water layers. They conclude that even though there exists some evidence for bioenergetic advantages, these advantages do not control vertical migration rather than being a consequence of it.…”

“…For reef Wshes, ecological evidence has demonstrated that passive dispersal alone cannot explain larval distributions (e.g., Leis and Carson-Ewart, 1998). Several studies have focused on early life-history traits (e.g., Doherty et al, 1995) and larval behaviour (e.g., Marliave, 1986;Miller and Shanks, 2004;Neilson and Perry, 1990) and tried to correlate them to dispersal potential. It would be interesting to understand if a coast with the range (ca.…”
