Change in small bodied fish in response to coral decline.

<p>(<i>A</i>) Continuous model Bayesian meta-analysis of relationship between decline in coral cover and change in fish <20 cm maximum attainable size. Green symbols indicate sites in NTAs, blue symbols indicate sites in fished areas. Inner dashed line represents 95% credible interval on the regression and outer dashed line represents the 95% prediction interval. • Mafia Island, ◊ Seychelles, ▴ Chagos, ▪ Maldives, ♦ Kenya, ▵ Tanzania, □ Réunion, ○ Mauritius. (<i>B</i>) Percent contribution of five trophic groups to the starting (mid-1990's) abundance of fish <20 cm maximum attainable body length across the region. Black = planktivores, dark grey = piscivores (barely present on plot; 0.05%), white = Mixed diet feeders, grey = herbivores, light grey = obligate corallivores.
