I study the migration of schoolmaster snapper from their juvenile nurseries in mangroves to coral reefs.
Reeker (1995) also showed a high percentage (69%; 312 out of 449 stomachs) of schoolmaster snapper (Lutjanus apodus) contained prey, when fish were collected from depths similar to those of the our study (1 to 27 m).
