Abstract

This dataset is from a manipulative experiment investigating the independent and combined effects of priority effects and habitat complexity on the strength of intraspecific competitive interactions among recently settled individuals of a coral reef fish.

This dataset is from a manipulative experiment investigating the independent and combined effects of priority effects and habitat complexity on the strength of intraspecific competitive interactions among recently settled individuals of a coral reef fish (Thalassoma quinquevittatum: Labridae).

This file is dataset 4 of 4 and describes the background fish community at the start of the experimental run. For additional data, please see files listed in Related Datasets.
