Towards an ultimate explanation for mixed‐species shoaling

Abstract: The formation of social groups has important impacts on fitness for many animal species, with differences in group compositions resulting in a range of fitness outcomes for individuals. Recent interest in mixed‐species grouping, which extends from a large body of literature invested in understanding single‐species grouping, highlights novel complexities of group formation which relate to phenotypic, behavioural and physiological differences that naturally exist between species. Among fishes, mixed‐species shoa… Show more

“…Because shoals in open habitats were characterized by large numbers of planktivorous species, it is likely that such habitats are associated with a greater abundance of planktonic food. In tropical coral reef systems, the movement of water adjacent to reefs has been shown to provide increased foraging efficiency for planktivores feeding further from the reef structure (Hamner et al, 1988 Irrespective of the underlying reason for differences, the results of this study and that by Smith et al (2018) in combination suggest that mechanisms associated with both shoal size and composition drive benefits for vagrant A. vaigiensis within mixed-species shoals (Paijmans et al, 2019).…”
