“…(63.1%). The effect of a percentage value of more than 60% on coral reef health is in line with the study by Kusuma et al (2020) that the effect of reef health on the abundance of coral fish on Enggano Island Bengkulu 0.615 (61.5%) was coral fish, affected by the health of corals. Similar results Rondonuwu et al (2019) reports high fish stock found in a high coral cover in western Halmahera, west Maluku province, Indonesia, in contrast to a low fish stock found in a low coral cover.…”

Reef composition and diversity of coral reef fishes play an essential role in the ecosystem. The reef fish diversity is a crucial indicator of the health level of coral reef ecosystems. The benefit of fish diversity in coral reef ecosystems is to describe ecological services. This research intended to determine reef fish diversity among stations at different depths, consisting of shallow water and reef slope. Research sampling was done in July 2018 and July 2019 in Tunda Island waters at eight stations billowing the coral distribution pattern. Collected data of reef fishes were by using Underwater Visual Census (UVC) on Belt Transects Method at 250 m2 transect area (50 meters of length and 2.5 m on either side). The result showed 69 reef fishes in shallow water and 67 species on the reef slope. The total of fish species ware from 13 families consisting of Acanthuridae, Apogonidae, Blenniidae, Chaetodontidae, Ephippidae, Haemulidae, Labridae, Lutjanidae, Nemipteridae, Pomacentridae, Pseudochromidae, Scaridae and Serranidae. The community services structure of coral reef fishes is included in the moderate community stability category with an H’ value ranging from 1.19-1.60 in shallow water and 1.23-1.44 at reef slope, respectively. Diversity in coral reef fish communities might be associated with species' spatial distribution over the reef habitat's physical structure, but these patterns could be highly scale-dependent. In general, it could be said that the higher the coral reef diversity, the higher the reef fish diversity.

“…The abundance of carnivorous fish will balance the abundance of herbivorous fish and directly affect the abundance and species richness of reef fish (Figure . 3). Kusuma et al (2020), in their research on Enggano Island, stated that low coral cover causes a low abundance of fish. Coral reef fish are one of the fish that live permanently in coral reefs (Hoeksema, 2017).…”

“…Coral reef fish are one of the fish that live permanently in coral reefs (Hoeksema, 2017). Damaged coral reefs will cause a decrease in the abundance of reef fish (Kusuma et al, 2020). Nudibranchs are vulnerable to a large number of marine animals (Adiwijaya et al, 2021).…”

The presence or absence of certain types of carnivorous coralfish in a coral reef ecosystem accurately indicates the health of a coral reef ecosystem and the organisms associated with it; one of them is the nudibranch. This research aims to determine whether the presence of carnivorous fish in coral reef ecosystems affects the quality of the nudibranch life cycle and the distribution size in terms of predation. Nine carnivorous fish species were found at the three research stations, the largest group being triggerfish and grouper found in Lovina Reef and Menjangan island. Observed from the size distribution of nudibranchs, the presence of nudibranchs in the three research locations shows sizes ranging from small to large, namely from the Phyllididae nudibranch group. The dead body of the nudibranch was found in Tulamben reef, but it could not be confirmed whether the nudibranch was preyed by carnivorous fish. Carnivorous fish are not predators and do not affect the life cycle of nudibranchs observed from the complete size distribution of nudibranchs from small to large. Nudibranch predators cannot digest nudibranch bodies because their bodies are venomous; they use them as self-defense against the predators. Nudibranchia are not always found when preyed on by fish.

“…The range of Pomacentrus alexanderae spans Australia to Japan. Type Cirrhilabrus solorensis is endogenous, even Kusuma et al (2020) stated this is an endemic fish to Indonesia. According to (Allen and Adrim 2003), these species' distribution is only limited from Papua to Bali.…”

Abstract. Mujiyanto, Sugianti Y, Afandy YA, Rahayu R, Bidikusuma RA, Nasriri AS, Syam AR, Purnaningtyas SE. 2021. Reef fish community structure in the islands of Paraja Bay, Pandeglang District, Banten, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 22: 4402-4413. Paraja Bay waters have five small islands that coexist with Ujung Kulon National Marine Park and act as a buffer zone for the diversity of fishery resources. This study aimed to assess the reef fishes community structure at small islands in Paraja Bay. Observations were made in 20 locations during August and September 2019 in the five small islands. Reef fishes community structure showed 106 species as included major group (54 species), indicator group (24 species) and target group (28 species), among five small islands, i.e. Badul, Mangir, Oar, Sumur and Umang Islands. The highest reef fishes abundance was founded in Umang Island waters. Several target fish species recorded during the study were mature fish (such as those targeted by fishermen). Only a small proportion were juveniles. Reef fish community structure was categorized as stress community to stable community with its indication was low diversity value, high evenness index, and low dominance. The low diversity index value illustrates that the level of uniformity of reef fish species in Paraja Bay waters is high. This condition is evidenced by each coral fish group's evenness index included in the main species group around 0.93 to 0.98. The target species is 0.88 to 0.99.
