A busy week for LECREEFS at #ICRS2026🪸

A plenary from @christinahicks.bsky.social & talks from
@cherfychow.bsky.social @lisagoberdhan.bsky.social @lljeannot.bsky.social Khatija & @nickajgraham.bsky.social about diversity patterns, cryptofauna distributions & pelagic subsidies to coral reefs 🪸🐠

🐠📣 New paper alert! 🦀 📣

Cryptofauna doesn't react uniformly to nutrients: cryptobenthic fishes are better able to capitalize on extra nutrients near seabird colonies, likely boosting larger piscivores; when rats are present, inverts thrive instead

Great science by PhD candidate @lisagoberdhan.bsky.social from @sosbangor.bsky.social. If you're interested in learning what lives in coral rubble, the drivers of their community structure, and how this varies across scales...look no further! @nickajgraham.bsky.social #coral #rubble #cryptofauna

📸🐠 Our crypto fish pics made the cover of @esajournals.bsky.social Ecology's latest issue! 🐠📸

Check out our article on cryptofauna to understand how these fishes act as a critical pathway for nutrients on reefs: esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Palau’s reefs aren’t just about corals and fish, they’re home to rubble cryptofauna, tiny organisms living among dead coral and rubble. These hidden creatures are vital for reef health and resilience, offering clues for conservation. Learn more about this hidden world here https://nature.ly/48X8bWu

Quantifying coral reef biodiversity is tough, especially for cryptofauna. This study shows eDNA metabarcoding effectively evaluates invertebrate communities on 3D-printed reef structures.

If you need an incentive to buy @luaz.bsky.social 's new chapbook, here's one from her recent release from @robmclennan.bsky.social 's above/ground press, But Then I Thought
Mythic Molten Mega-Cryptofauna The center of the ce nt au r is not gold. But the dictionary — too small, paperback, the cheapest I could find — tells me nothing of what might be in that hot hybrid heart.

Visitors were welcome, provided they refrained from gallivanting, dynamite diplomacy, or feeding the local cryptofauna. Sacrifices were strictly scheduled, and any beckoning hands were to be ignored unless wearing a ranger’s hat.

I think a wombat will make an excellent addition to the local cryptofauna.

Like *i* am not concerned with it, I’m wondering why *they* are. Just trying to figure out what sort of snow cryptofauna exist

Hi Rodrigo, I'm a PhD student studying the community ecology of motile cryptofauna on tropical coral reefs. Can you add me please? :)

We review the tiny, overlooked marine cryptofauna. We clarify what they are, why they matter, and highlight key research gaps. Understanding these hidden communities is essential for protecting marine biodiversity and ecosystem functioning.

A small translucent nudibranch collected from the Alcatrazes Archipelago. This marine invertebrate has an elongated pale orange body with numerous branching appendages extending from both sides, creating a feathery appearance. The head is positioned at the lower end of the image, where two long pointed tentacles project outward. The opposite end of the body curves slightly and narrows into a tapered tip. Fine orange and cream markings run along the body and appendages, forming delicate lace-like patterns.

Ascending after a very successful mesophotic dive at Desecheo Ridge! Puerto Rico has welcomed us with abundant and diverse corals and cryptofauna. Excited to see what other communities we will encounter during this expedition with @SchmidtOcean! #DiagnosingDeepCoral
