Feeding deterrence ofSinularia base sclentes towards gen- eralist carnivorous fishes at different sclente concentrations. Points rep- resent the mean feeding rate on artificial diet with sclerites relative to control diet lacking sclerites. Each value represents the results of a single two-way choice experiment. Circled points denote experiments in which sclerites were significantly deterrent (P ) at 50% by dry weight, but were deterrent at 82%

Intracolony differences in sclerite effectiveness When directly tested in paired feeding experiments, sclerites from the bases of the colonies were more effective feeding deterrents than sclerites from the tips of the col- onies (Fig. 11).
