3. Twilight
22
Five overlapping events at evening twilight that were essentiataly repeated in reverse at dawn. a. Migrations of diurnal fishes b. Cover-seeking of diurnal fishes c. Evacuation of the water column: the quiet period d. Emergence of the nocturnal fishes e. Migrations of nocturnal fishes

4. Determination of twilight behavior in coral-reef fishes

Ⅳ Diel Patterns in Other Habitat Types
29
1. Temperate lake
33
Other similarities between two systems: a.Dawn activities occurring at lower light levels than corresponding dusk activities b. Upsurge in non-feeding activities (e.g. agonistic behaviour) at dusk c. Ecological replacement stes, shifting to older individuals and larger-mouthed species at dusk d. A shift from group to individual activities in the evening e. A breakdown in characteristic twilight activtities during the breeding season f. An upsurge in predation at twilight
