Fatty Acid Composition of Euphausia superba, Thysanoessa macrura and Euphausia crystallorophias Collected from Prydz Bay, Antarctica
The information of trophic relationship is important for studying the Southern Ocean ecosystems. In this study, three dominant krill species, Euphausia superba, Thysanoessa macrura and Euphausia crystallorophias, were collected from Prydz Bay, Antarctica, during austral summer of 2009/2010. The comp...
