Abstract

The diet of Orestias agassii from fresh water springs associated to El Huasco Salt Lake were studied. The stomachs analysis indicated depredation on Ostracoda, Cladocera, Amphipoda, Diptera, Copepoda, Mollusca, Coleoptera, Acari and macrofites. It is concluded that O. agassii is an active carnivore in freshwater communities of the South-American altiplano.
