Feeding Ecology of Fish establishes a comprehensive framework for the variable ecological
patterns exemplified by feeding fishes. The author, a former president of the American …

Ecomorphological analyses that search for patterns of association between morphological
and prey-use data sets will have a greater chance of understanding the causal relationships …

Young-of-the-year bluefish Pomatomus saltatrix become piscivorous at a very small
size/age. When feeding on Atlantic silversides Menidia menidia in the laboratory, bluefish …

Estuarine fishes are generally much more abundant in structurally-complex seagrass beds
than in nearby sand flats. We tested for this pattern by comparing trawl catches from …

Predation can significantly affect prey populations and communities, but predator effects can
be attenuated when abiotic conditions interfere with foraging activities. In estuarine …

Destruction and degradation of biogenic nursery habitats, such as seagrass and
coral/oyster/polychaete reefs, threaten coastal fisheries worldwide. We tested the hypothesis …

This chapter examines the ways in which estuarine fishes interact both with their habitat, and
with each other, in relation to food and feeding. The ways in which diet and feeding may …

We raised leatherback posthatchlings in the laboratory for up to 7 weeks to study the role of
visual and chemical cues in food recognition and food-seeking behavior. Turtles were …

While considering important juvenile fish habitats individually, both seagrass and saltmarsh
are often highly connected with other subtidal and intertidal habitats. As a result, juvenile …
