Field studies of temporal patterns of feeding and emergence behaviour of crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci) on Wheeler Reef, Great Barrier Reef
This research was undertaken to provide quantitative data on the proportions of Acanthaster planci feeding during the day and night.
Coral Reef - Condition, Crown of Thorns Starfish - Activity, Crown of Thorns Starfish - Condition,
Crown of Thorns Starfish - Diameter, Crown of Thorns Starfish - Outbreak Status, Food - Preference, Lifeform - Benthic, Percentage Cover, Relative Frequency, Substrate Type, Density - Population, Genus, Species
These data were used in Chapter 2 of the PHD Thesis, Keesing JK (1990) Feeding biology of the crown-of-thorns starfish, Acanthaster planci (Linnaeus). Ph.D Thesis, James Cook University of North Queensland, Townsville, 197 pp.
