<div><p>Field data were collected at the site list locations in Palau (June 2nd to 24th, 2017), Yap (June 25th to July 6th, 2017), the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) (2018), and Kiritimati and Majuro (2019). The maximum length of each fish species was taken from the literature and the maximum size of each fish was estimated from our field surveys. The scar proportion and bite volume was estimated using the maximum size of the fish species. Professor Peter Mumby provided bite conversion values.</p></div>

Parrotfish bite rates, volume of substrate removed, and estimates of erosional scars for each species observed in surveys at Palau, Yap, the Federated States of Micronesia, Majuro, and Kiritimati from 2017 to 2019
As part of the reef-composition survey of Palau, Yap, and the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), the erosion caused by parrotfish grazing at each site was estimated with in-situ data of size and density of parrotfish species. Data were also derived from the scientific literature on the species-specific bite rates and other processes that influence fish bioerosion rates. Field data were collected in Palau and Yap in 2017, in FSM in 2018, and in Majuro and Kiritimati in 2019.
