Home on the reef

December 7, 2008

An orange clownfish (Amphiprion percula) peeks out from the protection of sea anemones on a reef in Kimbe Bay, Papua New Guinea. Clownfish are the focal species in ongoing research by WHOI biologist Simon Thorrold and colleagues from Australia and France to track the dispersal of reef fish larvae among designated marine reserves in Kimbe Bay.
