a Venn diagrams representing the number of fish taxa detected at Ashmore Reef and Daw Island by passive eDNA collection methods with charged nylon (blue) and non-charged cellulose (pink) filter membranes, compared to actively filtering 9 L of water at each site (grey). b A principal coordinate analysis plot with 99% ellipses by eDNA capture method, where each dot represents a sample and colours correspond to eDNA capture method. c Pairwise comparisons by eDNA capture method (Bonferroni corrected; grey boxes indicate significance at α = 0.05).
