Tripp-Valdez A., Arreguín-Sánchez F., Zetina-Rejón M.J. 2012. The food of Selene peruviana (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Carangidae) in the southern Gulf of California. Acta Ichthyol. Piscat. 42 (1): 1–7.

[摘要] Background. The food and feeding habits of a fish are important for understanding not only the fish biology but also the role played by the species in the ecosystem. The Peruvian moonfish (known also as Pacific moonfish), Selene peruviana (Guichenot, 1866), is a relatively abundant species, with its biology poorly known along the Mexican Pacific zone. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the principal food items of the Peruvian moonfish by using stable isotopes and the stomach content analysis.
