Coral-eating fish (corallivores) may aid coral reef resilience through the dispersal of millions of live Symbiodiniaceae (coral symbionts) cells in their feces. This figure lists the concentrations of Symbiodiniaceae cells in distinct environmental compartments on coral reefs, based on my work in Mo'orea and other published literature (Grupstra et al. 2021).
