Year: 1989
Notes: Suva reef; Coral Coast; Astrolabe reef; Makogai reef; Dravuni reef
Held at: IMR; USP
Identifiers: Coral spawning
Abstract: The aim of this project is to determine whether the scleractinian coral communities of Fiji have a synchronized mass spawning event and whether this occurs on an annual basis.

Mass coral spawning on Fijian reefs
Author(s):
Vuki, V., Manueli, F., Mildner, S.
Year: 1990
Held at: IMR; USP
USPL Call Number: QH 95 .8 V7
Identifiers: Coral spawning; A.hyacinthus; A.gemmifera; A.formosa; A.millepora; A.secale; Goniastrea retiformis; P.daedalea; P.sinensis; Eunice viridis
Abstract: The mass coral spawning on Fijian reefs was established from surveys and personal communications. Monitoring of 10 scleractinian coral species was conducted on Suva and Fish Patch Reefs to determine simple correlations in egg diameter and fecundity prior spawning and post spawning in October and November. Coral spawning occurred on the fifth night and the sixth night after October and November full moon on these reefs. A sychronised coral mass spawning event was also documented on Astrolobe, Makogai and Makodraga Reefs. As timing of balolo (Eunice viridis) ride coincides with coral mass spawning in Fiji, information on balolo rise in 1989 was also documented. Balolo rose on the ninth morning after the full moon on most outer islands in Fiji.
