Acknowledgements Acknowledgements We are very grateful to Howard Choat for contributing his extensive knowledge of the nutritional ecology of herbivorous reef fishes, and for practical advice regarding <strong>monitoring</strong> methods for these species. We also thank David Obura, Paul Marshall, Rod Salm, Andrew Hoey, Lyndon DeVantier, Emre Turak, Bob Steneck, Laurence McCook, Gerry Allen, Lizzie McLeod, Jerker Tamelander and Joanne Wilson for technical advice regarding <strong>monitoring</strong> methods for herbivorous reef fishes as indicators of coral reef resilience; Jensen Montambault for providing advice regarding statistical analyses; Gerry Allen for providing a species list of reef fishes of the Asia Pacific Region; and Gerry Allen, Richard Hamilton, Andrew Hoey, Andrew Lewis, Emre Turak, Rod Salm, Kydd Pollock and David Wachenfeld for providing the images. We are also grateful to the field practitioners who tested these methods in both the Asia Pacific Region (Andreas Muljadi, Audrie Siahainenia and Sony Tasidjawa) and the West Indian Ocean (David Obura, Ameer Abdulla, Jelvas Mwaura, Haji Machano, Riaz Aumeeruddy, Udo Engelhardt and Jude Bijoux). This work would not have been possible without the generous support of the IUCN Working Group on Climate Change and Coral Reefs, John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, The Nature Conservancy, James Cook University, and the Australian Research Council Center of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies. 73
