Food habits of Dipturus chilensis (Pisces: Rajidae) off Patagonia, Argentina (2001, methodology): “Size (total length (TL) of fish and dorsal mantle length (DML) of squid, cm) and wet weight (W, g) of prey at the moment of ingestion were estimated from hard pieces found in the gut contents by using allometric regressions (Santos, 1994; Koen Alonso et al., 1998, 1999, 2000).”
Stable isotope analysis reveals pelagic foraging by the Southern sea lion in central Chile (2007, background): “Although the species has been historically considered an opportunistic predator with a broad diet spectrum for its Atlantic range (Koen-Alonso et al., 2000; Naya et al., 2000), it appears that Southern sea lion along the Chilean coast feeds on a lower diversity of prey items (Hückstädt and Antezana,”
Multispecies modelling of some components of the marine community of northern and central Patagonia, Argentina (2005, background): “In our case, the observed high level of consistency improves the odds of capturing some reality in these modelling attempts, but the best models still picture the sea lion as a much more severe hake predator than the few available quantitative diet data suggest (Koen-Alonso et al. 2000a).”
Stable isotopes reveal trophic segregation by sex and age in the southern giant petrel in two different food webs (2005, background): “Similarly, southern sea lions Otaria flavescens from Patagonia feed mainly on cephalopod and fish species (Alonso et al. 2000).”
Fishery and Ontogenetic Driven Changes in the Diet of the Spiny Dogfish, Squalus acanthias, in Patagonian Waters, Argentina (2002, methodology): “The Argentine hake and the Argentine shortfin squid are important prey species for several marine mammals and fishes in the northern and central Patagonia marine community (Sánchez & Prenski 1996, Garcı́a de la Rosa & Sánchez 1997, Koen Alonso et al. 1998, 1999, 2000).”
A review of gastrolith function with implications for fossil vertebrates and a revised classification (2007, background): “However, recent studies revealed that the presence of gastroliths is not correlated to the pres− ence of stomach parasites in sea lions (Alonso et al. 2000) and in seals (Lucas et al.”
Foraging behavior of lactating South American sea lions (Otaria flavescens) and spatial-temporal resource overlap with the Uruguayan fisheries (2013, background): “Within the Atlantic SASL have a very broad diet that consists of a number of species in common with fisheries suggesting that a fisheries interaction is occurring (Crespo et al., 1997; George-Nascimento et al., 1985; Koen-Alonso et al., 2000; Naya et al., 2000; Thompson et al., 1998).”
