The feeding ecology of larval fish in an Antarctic fjord, with emphasis on Champsocephalus gunnari
The vertical distribution of five species of fish larvae and their prey species was studied in late winter and summer at Cumberland East Bay, South Georgia. Prey type varied between fish species but was dominated by the copepod Drepanopus forcipatus and copepod eggs. Prey numbers increased with fish...
