Predation describes a consumer capturing animal prey. Herbivory describes consumption of plants or algae. In mutualism, both partners benefit. Reef-building corals and their photosynthetic partners offer one example. NOAA’s coral explanation ↗
Follow an arrow from the organism to the recorded target, then open the evidence link for its context. A habitat association describes where an organism occurs. It says nothing by itself about what that organism eats. Blank areas show where this collection lacks a reviewed link.
No reviewed ecological connections are recorded for this selection yet. Explore the documented collection. Taxonomic relatives below are classification links, not evidence of an ecological interaction.
