Título: | Temporal changes in feeding habits and daily rations of Hoplostethus mediterraneus in the bathyal Ionian Sea (eastern Mediterranean) |
Autor: | Madurell, Teresa CSIC ORCID ; Cartes, Joan Enric CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | abr-2005 | Editor: | Springer Nature | Citación: | Marine Biology 146(5): 951-962 (2005) | Resumen: | Data on the diet, feeding habits and daily rations of Hoplostethus mediterraneus Cuvier, 1829 in the bathyal eastern Ionian Sea (Mediterranean Sea) are presented. A total of 430 specimens collected by bottom trawls at depths ranging from 473 to 603 m during four 24-h day-night sampling cycles covering the four annual seasons was examined. H. mediterraneus diet consisted of pelagic and vagile epibenthic prey, mainly crustaceans, and was dominated by benthopelagic natantian decapods (83.35% IRI, index of relative importance). Seasonal changes in diet were apparent and related to seasonal fluctuations in suprabenthic and zooplanktonic prey in the environment. Diel patterns in stomach fullness and trends in diel feeding cycles are discussed in relation to the vertical migratory movements of available prey (i.e. suprabenthos and zooplankton). Daily-ration estimates were determined by evacuation-rate models and ranged from 0.143% to 0.397% WW/WW. Overall, daily-ration estimates were within the range of the daily consumption of other deep-sea fish. Deduced from diet contents, we found a constant gross energy intake (305-316 kcal g -1) during all seasons. As a possible response to the reproductive peak of mature females observed in summer, H. mediterraneus increases its food consumption, which, in turn, is coupled with an increase in food availability. © Springer-Verlag 2005 | Descripción: | 12 pages, 8 figures, 5 tables | Versión del editor: | https://doi.org/10.1007/s00227-004-1502-8 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/134412 | DOI: | 10.1007/s00227-004-1502-8 | Identificadores: | doi: 10.1007/s00227-004-1502-8 issn: 0025-3162 e-issn: 1432-1793 |
