Variations in the diet composition and feeding intensity of mackerel icefish (Champsocephalus gunnari) at South Georgia (Antarctic)
January/February 1985, January/February 1991 and January 1992. Main prey items were krill (Euphausia ... Thysanoessa species. The proportion of krill and Themisto in the diet varied considerably between the three ... seasons, whereas the proportion of mysids in the diet remained fairly constant. Krill which has a high ... energy content appears to be the prefered diet. In years of krill shortage, such as in 1991, krill is ...
