The species on this page are typical of north Florida oyster reefs. Dr. David Kimbro, Dr. Randall Hughes, and their colleagues are conducting an NSF funded study into predators and predator effects on oyster reefs. In addition, Dr. David Kimbro and his graduate student, Hanna Garland, are researching the drought-stricken oyster reefs of Apalachicola Bay. Included in the descriptions of species are links to blog posts related to both studies.
Foundation Species
American Oyster (Crassostrea virginica) also known as the Eastern Oyster
Like the smooth cordgrass is the foundational species of a salt marsh, the oysters that comprise a reef create an ecosystem. Click to expand
Like the smooth cordgrass is the foundational species of a salt marsh, the oysters that comprise a reef create an ecosystem. Oysters can grow on any hard surface in the intertidal zone, though larval oysters tend to seek out the chemical signature of other oysters, landing on their shells. Once a larval oyster recruits to a surface, it is called spat. As oysters build their shells on other oyster's shells, they create a reef structure which benefits the oysters as well as the many species that seek refuge within it.
They provide shelter for a number of predators and prey, and themselves are prey of animals like the mud crab and the oyster drill (and humans). The oyster is a filter feeder, consuming phytoplankton swimming in the water. Through that process, the oyster removes nitrogen from the water, potentially preventing algal blooms that harm other marine animals.
The oysters studied in David and Randall's NSF study are intertidal, meaning that they are exposed at low tide. These tend to grow smaller than subtidal oysters like those in Apalachicola Bay, which remain submerged and are commercially harvested.
Top Predators
Hardhead Catfish (Arius felis)
In north Florida, catfish are dominant predators in the oyster reef ecosystem. Click to expand
Sail Catfish (Bagre marinus)also known as the Gafftopsail catfish
Similar to the Hardhead catfish, the gafftopsail is distinguished by its venomous spines. Click to expand
Toadfish (Opsanus tau)also known as the ugly toad and the oyster cracker
The toadfish is a primary predator of mud crabs on the North Carolina reefs where Dr. David Kimbro and Dr. Randall Hughes began their research careers. Click to expand
These omnivores grow between 30-38 cm, and prefer to eat crabs such as hermits and mud crabs.
The toadfish is a primary predator of mud crabs on the North Carolina reefs where Dr. David Kimbro and Dr. Randall Hughes began their research careers. Though toadfish are native to Florida waters, Hardhead and Sail Catfish are more usually the dominant predator of north Florida reefs.
Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus)
A popular delicacy in this habitat is the blue crab, which is the crab used to make Maryland crab cakes. Click to Expand
A popular delicacy in this habitat is the blue crab, which is the crab used to make Maryland crab cakes. Increasingly, Maryland imports their crabs from Florida, which has more robust habitats for them. On oyster reefs and in salt marshes, blue crabs are important predators that help control populations of oyster drills, mud crabs, and periwinkle snails.
Stone Crab (Menippe mercenaria)
Stone crabs have strong, meaty claws that are used to crush oysters. Click to expand
Oyster Predators
Atlantic Oyster Drill (Urosalpinx cinerea)
Oyster drills use their radula to bore holes into oysters and clams. Click to expand
Oyster drills use their radula to bore holes into oysters and clams. This species is found on the Kimbro/ Hughes sites on Florida's Atlantic coast. The larger southern oyster drill has become a problem in Apalachicola Bay.
Southern Oyster Drill (Thais haemastoma)
This oyster drill species is a problem in commercial oyster fisheries, and large numbers have been found in Apalachicola Bay. Click to Expand.
Crown Conch (Melongena corona)
Crown conchs consume oysters by inserting their proboscis between an oyster's valves. Click to expand
David Kimbro presents his team's findings regarding oyster predators in Apalachicola Bay. Click here here for more.
Banded Tulip (Fasciolaria hunteria)
The banded tulip is a predator that feed on oysters as well as bivalves such as clams. Click to Expand
Mud Crab (Panopeus sp.)
Panopeus species range in size from the miniscule herbstrii to larger individuals closer in size to stone crabs. Click to expand
Other Species In & Around the Reef
Black Drum (Pogonias cromis)
The largest of the drum family, the black drum is common in brackish waters such as those in which oyster reefs are found. Click to Expand
Lightning Whelk (Busycon contrarium)
Like the crown conch, the lightning whelk uses its proboscis to pry bivalves open and suck out the flesh. Click to expand
Pigfish (Orthopristis chrysoptera)
Pinfish (Lagodon rhomboides)
The pinfish gets its name from the sharp spines in its dorsal fin. Click to expand
Red Drum(Sciaenops ocellatus) also known as Redfish, Channel Bass, Spottail Bass, or Reds
The red drum is a popular catch for the sport fisherman, and is widely consumed by humans. Click to expand
Red Snapper (Lutjanus campechanus)
As juveniles, red snapper often use oyster reefs for refuge. Click to expand
Silver Perch (Bairdiella chrysoura)
Snapping Shrimp (Alpheidae family)
Snapping shrimp are known for their claws which make a "popping" sound that can be heard on intertidal oyster reefs. Click to expand
Striped mullet (Mugil cephalus)
Striped mullet is an international fish, found along coastlines of every continent except Antarctica. Click to expand
Thinstripe Hermit Crab (Clibinarius vittatus)
Hermit crabs occupy gastropod shells of all kinds, either finding them empty or attacking occupied shells. Click to Expand.
Hermit crabs occupy gastropod shells of all kinds, either finding them empty or attacking occupied shells. Dr. David Kimbro's graduate student, Hanna Garland, had noticed that they were often a predator of crown conchs in the oyster reefs south of Saint Augustine. Those reefs had been overrun with the conchs. Read more about Hanna Garland's Hermit Crab/Crown Conch Cage Matches here.

Top-Rated Corporate Bonds Grow Increasingly Risky
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Bond investors keep shifting into riskier assets, particularly high-yield corporate bonds, for the pickup in yield, taking comfort that the Fed is providing enough of an economic backstop to keep default rates low. But the place where risks seem to be growing the most is in high-rated corporate bonds. Their record-low yields make them uncommonly sensitive to movements in Treasury rates. Patrick McGee offers the latest report on this rising risk in today's Wall Street Journal:
Amid the rush of [2012 corporate] bond deals, which already have topped $1 trillion in value, these managers—from BlackRock Inc. to Federated Investment Management Co.—are pointing to unusual wrinkles suggesting that now could be one of the most dangerous times in decades to lend to investment-grade companies.
Interest rates are so low and bond prices so high, they warn, that there is little room left for gains. Some worry that even a small increase in interest rates—a traditional enemy of bond returns—could eat away at bond prices.
For the first time in decades, some companies are offering a dividend yield—the value of annual dividend payments divided by the share price—that is higher than the interest rate they pay on their bonds, meaning that investors could get a better stream of income from stocks.
The story points out that some of the largest bond fund managers are looking to reduce their exposure to U.S. corporate bonds, with some moving into stocks and convertible bonds.
"Fixed-income is becoming an asset class with more risk to it, and I think people underestimate that," said Rick Rieder, who oversees more than $600 billion in assets as BlackRock 's chief investment officer of fundamental fixed income. He is making changes to minimize his exposure to potential losses from rising interest rates, including buying higher-yielding junk bonds and European debt. "It would take very little in the way of a rate increase for investors to lose their total returns across many traditional fixed income sectors."
