• Antarctic fur seals foraging in the Polar Frontal Zone: inter-annual shifts in diet as shown from fecal and fatty acid analyses (2002, background): “The productive waters of the PFZ, where Antarctic krill are absent, are likely to influence the foraging and breeding success of predators at Îles Kerguelen (Bocher et al. 2001).”
• Diet and feeding ecology of blue petrels Halobaena caerulea at Iles Kerguelen, Southern Indian Ocean (2002, background): “T. gaudichaudii is one of the main macrozooplankton species in the Southern Ocean (Kane 1966), including the Iles Kerguelen (Bocher et al. 2001).”
• Fatty acid composition of lipid-rich myctophids and mackerel icefish (Champsocephalus gunnari) – Southern Ocean food-web implications (2002, background): “The region around the Kerguelen Plateau, in the vicinity of the Kerguelen Archipelago and Heard Island, is one such area.”
• Energy Density of Patagonian Aquatic Organisms and Empirical Predictions Based on Water Content (2007, background): “For example, the amphipod Themisto gaudichaudii is the main prey of major commercial species such as the squid Illex argentinus (Ivanovic and Brunetti 1994), Argentine hake, and hoki Macroronus magellanicus, the principal targets of trawl fisheries in the area (Wholer et al. 1997) as well as of seve”
• Trophic relationships of exotic anadromous salmonids in the southern Patagonian Shelf as inferred from stable isotopes (2008, background): “A similar food web is supported by this same species in the Kerguelen Island, at about the same latitude (49–50uS) in the Indian Ocean, where TG is the major prey for all seabird species investigated (39–80% of total diet number of petrels, prions, and rockhopper penguins; Bocher et al. 2001).”
• Food and feeding ecology of the sympatric thin- billed Pachyptila belcheri and Antarctic P. desolata prions at Iles Kerguelen, Southern Indian Ocean (2002, background): “A recent detailed comparison of the size structure of T. gaudichaudii between P. belcheri food samples and concomitant net hauls indicated that birds caught most juveniles and almost all adult amphipods in offshore waters (Bocher et al. 2001).”
• Spatial and temporal variation in the diet of the gentoo penguin (Pygoscelis papua) at Kerguelen Islands (2004, unknown): “Parathemisto gaudichaudii occurs in high densities in Morbihan Gulf (Bocher et al. 2001), in all seasons (Bost et al.”
• Feeding ecology of myctophid fishes in the northern Scotia Sea (2009, background): “It is also a key species on the Patagonian shelf and in other subAntarctic areas (Bocher et al. 2001).”
• Toward a global reference database of COI barcodes for marine zooplankton (2021, background): “Hyperiid amphipods are an exclusively holoplanktonic group of marine Crustacea, which serve as important prey in pelagic food webs for whales, planktivorous fish and seabirds, and as commensals and parasitoids of gelatinous zooplankton (Bocher et al. 2001; Harbison et al. 1977).”
• Foraging under contrasting oceanographic conditions: the gentoo penguin at Kerguelen Archipelago (2005, background): “The short trips performed by Closed Sea birds were probably due to the proximity of abundant macrozooplankton species (Bocher et al. 2001).”
