Trophodynamics of Protomyctophum (Myctophidae) in the Scotia Sea (Southern Ocean) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, 2015
This study investigated spatial and temporal patterns in distribution, population structure and diet of Bolin's lanternfish Protomyctophum bolini, Tenison's lanternfish Protomyctophum tenisoni and gaptooth lanternfish Protomyctophum choriodon in the Scotia Sea using data collected by midwater trawl during spring, summer and autumn.

Lanternfishes (Myctophidae) in Sri Lankan Waters

open access: yesAsian Fisheries Science, 1993
A total of 16 species of lanternfishes was identified off Sri Lanka from cruises with R.V. "Dr. Fridtjof Nansen" during 1979 and 1980. Three of these, Benthosema pterotum, Bolinichthys longipes and Myctophum obtusirostrum, were recorded for the first time in the area investigated.

Main drivers of mercury levels in Southern Ocean lantern fish Myctophidae [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Pollution, 2020
Myctophids are the most abundant fish group in the Southern Ocean pelagic ecosystem and are an important link in the Antarctic marine food web. Due to their major ecological role, evaluating the level of mercury (Hg) contamination in myctophids is important as a step towards understanding the trophic pathway of this contaminant.

First Report on the Diet of the Angolan Flying Squid (Todarodes angolensis) in New Zealand Waters

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Angolan flying squid (Todarodes angolensis) is a southerly distributed, large‐bodied ommastrephid preyed upon by many large marine vertebrates such as the southern elephant seal and deep‐sea squalid sharks. Here, we report its diet in New Zealand waters for the first time, identifying prey items from the stomach contents of 58 adults using ...

Modelled target strengths of three lanternfish (family: Myctophidae) in the north east Atlantic based on swimbladder and body morphology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
At mesopelagic depths (200-1000 m), in the oceanic parts of the earth, there are probably the most abundant fish assemblages in the world, often observed on echosounder displays as sound scattering layers extending over vast areas.

Early development of Diaphus spp. (Pisces: Myctophidae) of the Agulhas Current [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The genus Diaphus is taxonomically one of the most difficult in the family Myctophidae. In the Southwest Indian Ocean, at least 18 species of the genus are found but larval development is known for only two.

Using the Diet Composition of Adult Chinook Salmon to Understand the Regional Structure of Salish Sea Forage Communities

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 565-579, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Small pelagic fish and other forage species are patchily distributed over space and time, resulting in variable foraging conditions experienced by their predators. The high‐resolution data necessary to understand the spatiotemporal structure of forage communities are challenging to collect with expensive fishery‐independent surveys, meaning ...
