The food and feeding of five species of icefish in the Elephant Island – South Shetland Islands Region in March 2003
Abstract: We studied the food and feeding of five species of icefish in the Elephant Island ... Islands. The bulk of the diet of C. rastrospinosus consisted of krill and fish. Diet intensity, however ... proportion of the stomachs was found to be empty in C. aceratus and C. antarcticus. Author(s): K.-H. Kock, H ... . Flores (Germany), C.D. Jones (USA), S. Wilhelms and S.

Standing stock, biology, diet and spatial distribution of demersal finfish from the 2003 US AMLR bottom trawl survey of the South Shetland Islands (Subarea 48.1)
bottom trawl surveys of the South Shetland Islands (Subarea 48.1) during the 1998, 2001, and 2003 austral ... demersal finfish species have remained relatively consistent across all surveys. Shelf regions of ... important feeding areas lie to the west and north of Elephant Island and to the north of King George Island ... greater than 200 meters. Estimates of total stock biomass from these surveys were computed for eight ...
