Feeding habits related to age of Lithognathus mormyrus (Osteichthyes, Sparidae) were investigated. The specimens analysed for age and size classes, were captured by the artisanal fleet of Selinunte (S/W Sicily), from May '98 to May '99. Amphipoda and Polychaeta are main food for the youngest specimens. The biggest specimens present a wide food spectrum, moreover move their predatory interest to other categories such as Echinodermata and Mollusca.

Abstract
Feeding habits related to age of Lithognathus mormyrus (Osteichthyes, Sparidae) were investigated. The specimens analysed for age and size classes, were captured by the artisanal fleet of Selinunte (S/W Sicily), from May '98 to May '99. Amphipoda and Polychaeta are main food for the youngest specimens. The biggest specimens present a wide food spectrum, moreover move their predatory interest to other categories such as Echinodermata and Mollusca.File in questo prodotto:
