Diet of the smooth-hound, Mustelus mustelus (Chondrichthyes: Triakidae), in the eastern Adriatic Sea
The diet of the smooth-hound, Mustelus mustelus, in the eastern Adriatic Sea was investigated with respect to fish size and season. Stomach contents of 139 specimens, 67 to 137 cm in TL, collected by bottom-trawl from 2001 to 2003 were analyzed. Of the total number of stomachs examined, 24 were empty (17.2%).
