- Prey size, morphology, behaviour and abundance can all influence the prey selection of larval and juvenile fishes. Differences in feeding behaviour between fish species, individuals or during ontogeny can also be important, as can inter- and intraspecific interactions (competition, predation risk).

Dec 22, 2022 · Change in diet diversity of larval fish occurs in terms of both prey taxa and size and all fish taxa from this study demonstrated either ontogenetic shifts in prey types, sizes, or both over the length classes considered.
Jul 26, 2020 · The availability of suitable prey during the early life of fish may determine recruitment to the adult population. Since larval and juvenile feeding can be highly selective, their preferences for certain prey species and sizes should be considered when estimating the availability of prey.

In altricial fish, the digestive tract gradually develops from a short and straight tube, often closed at both the mouth and anal ends in yolk-sac larvae, into a segmented and histologically differentiated tract in juvenile fish.

Mar 27, 2024 · This study contrasts diet composition patterns of larval fish categorized as strong and weak foragers, identified from quadratic relationships between larval length and the number of prey eaten, for 11 fish species.
Feb 20, 2007 · This study investigated the food and feeding relationships of the larvae and 0+ year juveniles of 13 fish species in ‘main river’, ‘marina’ and ‘pond’ macrohabitats in the lower River Trent, England. Young larvae had narrow diet spectra, with feeding diversity and the importance of species-specific traits increasing with development.
