dc.description.abstract | In the norwegian oyster spatting ponds several factors may influence
the spat production. During a basic, general study in a pond in
1983-84, Aurelia aurita was demonstrated to be a heavy predator on
pelagic oyster larvae, reducing the spat production to zero. The
medusae occurred at a density of up to 125 ind. pr. m 3. Body areas
of individual medusae (x) and the number of oyster larvae in a medusa
(y), followed the linear relationship y = 0.08X-0,01. The size
of oyster larvae in plankton, in the digestive system of the medusae,
or in sediment traps never exceeded 200 ll m, suggesting that
the larvae lived for maximum 3 days before they were eaten. | no_NO |
