Contrasting feeding patterns among species of fish larvae from the tropical Andaman Sea (2005, background): “Sabatés and Saiz (2000) also found that observed difference in prey preference between species to a great extent was related to morphological differences between larval species.”
A comparison of anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) and sardine (Sardina pilchardus) larvae feeding in the Northwest Mediterranean: influence of prey availability and ontogeny (2010, background): “The larvae of most fish species have been reported not to alter their trophic-niche breadth over the course of development (Pearre, 1986; Sabatés and Saiz, 2000), although increases (Pepin and Penney, 1997) or decreases (Morote et al.”
Lipid biomarkers and trophic linkages between phytoplankton, zooplankton and anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) larvae in the NW Mediterranean (2006, background): “This range (53–100) mm is the most suitable size for fish larvae feeding and is dominated by nauplii and copepodites stages of copepods (Sabatés and Saiz, 2000), the main prey of anchovy larvae (Conway et al., 1998; Tudela et al., 2002).”
