“…Experiments have confirmed that the timing of sex change is sensitive to the immediate social environment in limpets [9,55], snails [56], shrimp [17] and many species of Bidirectional sex change is beneficial in the coral goby Gobiodon histrio because movement between corals might be required to form a breeding pair following the loss of a partner. The ability to change sex in each direction enables an individual to breed with any other single adult encountered, and thus reduce the risk of searching for a new partner [49,50].…”

“…Within the Calyptraeidae, species of Crepidula are the most wellstudied animals with respect to sex change (Coe, 1938;Gould, 1952;Coe, 1953;Collin, 1995Collin, , 2013. These sedentary filter feeders vary widely in gregariousness; some species form stacks of up to 20 individuals or more, others form small stacks of two or three, and still others do not stack (Hoagland, 1978;Warner et al, 1996;Collin, 2006). The duration of these stacks and the rate of movement between stacks are not known.…”

“…Likewise, the population sex ratio can vary from heavily male-biased to heavily female-biased (Collin, 2006). Group size is thought to play a role in calyptraeid sex change, as in other sex-changing animals (Collin, 1995;Warner et al, 1996;Hoch and Cahill, 2012). In laboratory experiments, males of several Crepidula species that were raised alone changed sex earlier and at a smaller size than did similar males that were paired with a female (Coe, 1938;Hoagland, 1978;Collin et al, 2005).…”

“…In most sex changing organisms size at sex change is influenced by interactions with conspecifics (e.g., molluscs: Chen et al, 1998;Collin et al, 2005;Hoagland, 1978;Warner et al, 1996;Wright, 1989. Polychaetes: Franke, 1986Premoli and Sella, 1995), and fishes are no exception (e.g., Cole and Robertson, 1988;Cole and Shapiro, 1995;Robertson, 1972;Sakai et al, 2001;Warner and Swearer, 1991).…”

“…These animals are sedentary, protandrous suspension-feeders, with welldocumented socially-mediated sex change (Coe, 1938(Coe, , 1953Collin, 2006;Collin et al, 2005;Gould, 1917Gould, , 1919Hoagland, 1978;Warner et al, 1996). We used a common species of calyptraeid, Crepidula cf.…”
