Abstract

Atlantic cod larvae showed strong selectivity for the medium-size calanoid copepod Pseudocalanus spp. Naupliar stages comprised 62.4 of total prey number in the gut of first-feeding larvae. Selectivity shifted to Pseudocalanus spp. females at the mid-larval stage, representing 43 of all prey ingested by >12 mm larvae. © The Author 2010. Published by Oxford University Press.
