  abstract = {{S}mall-scale fisheries provide nutrients to hundreds of millions of people worldwide, with yields dependent on the condition of marine habitats such as coral reefs. {S}mall-scale fisheries are a particularly important food source in societies with nutrient deficiencies and where unhealthy food alternatives are widely available. {U}sing data from coral reef surveys around two islands in {F}rench {P}olynesia ({M}oorea and {R}aiatea), we show how the availability of nutrients to fisheries changed in relation to the condition of coral habitat. {F}ish biomass and nutrient availability were highest when coral cover was low around both islands, driven predominantly by abundant herbivorous reef fish. {W}e also investigated the importance of fish in people's diets, to determine if fish consumption was aligned with available fisheries resources on local reefs and if nutrient intakes from fish could be explained by people's socioeconomic background. {P}eople ate a higher diversity of reef fish in {R}aiatea, however nutrient intakes from fish were higher in {M}oorea. {M}ost people ate more fish than meat on both islands, however fish consumption declined over generations. {P}eople from fishing households had higher nutrient intakes from reef and pelagic fish, and people from farming households had higher intakes from reef fish. {P}reference for eating reef fish over pelagic fish was also associated with higher total nutrient intakes. {P}romoting traditional diets rich in fish could be key to meeting people's nutritional needs in {F}rench {P}olynesia while reducing diet-related health issues linked to the overconsumption of fat. {F}rench and {T}ahitian versions of the {A}bstract are available in {S}upplementary {M}aterial.},
