  abstract = {{H}uman interest in biodiversity is essential for effective conservation action but remains poorly quantified at large scales. {H}ere, we investigated human interest for 2408 marine reef fishes using data obtained from online public databases and social media, summarized in two synthetic dimensions, research effort and public attention. {B}oth dimensions are mainly related to geographic range size. {R}esearch effort is also linked to fishery importance, while public attention is more related to fish aesthetic value and aquarium trade importance. {W}e also found a strong phylogenetic bias, with certain fish families receiving disproportional research effort and public attention. {M}ost concerningly, species at the highest risk of extinction and those most vulnerable to future climate change tend to receive less research effort and public attention. {O}ur results provide a lens through which examining the societal attention that species garner, with the ultimate goals to improve conservation strategies, research programs, and communication plans.},
