Abstract
⺠Fishing pressure explains diversity and function of coral reef fishes. ⺠But markets, population density and socioeconomic development explain fishing. ⺠Market access strongly increases fishing, reducing key functional group biomass. ⺠Human population density increases fishing, affecting reef fish diversity. ⺠Socioeconomic development has weak positive and negative effects on fishes.
