| Abstract |
During research cruises with the R.V. "Victor Hansen" and R.V. "Utorn"in June and July 1988 in the German Bight a total of 310 Myoxocephalusscorpius were caught. They were measured, the stomach fullness estimated and the contents identified. Crustaceans, mainly Macropipus holsatus and Crangon spp., were the major prey species with some fish and bivalves being taken as well. The presence of stomach ulcers and the infestation rates with leeches were noted. |
