Abstract

Two reef fish species, 'Pseudolabrus guentheri' and 'Chromis nitida', traditionally restricted to the central and southern Great Barrier Reef (GBR) were observed in the northern GBR. This range extension is unusual as it runs contrary to the general expectations of poleward range shifts associated with climate change.
