The threatened status of groupers (Epinephelinae)

2000-07-01

Abstract excerpt

The marine environment has traditionally been considered to be resilient to human impacts. However, concern over growing threats to marine biodiversity has led to a renewed effort to assess and quantify risks to marine species. This study assesses threats to the subfamily Epinephelinae of the Serranidae (groupers), a commercially and ecologically important group of predatory fish which are heavily exploited throug...
