dc.description.abstract | Laboratory experiments with herring larvae (Clupea harengus L.) from the local stock in
Lindåspollene, north of Bergen, Norway, were performed in the spring of 1978 and 1979.
Digestion rates of copepod nauplii and polychaet larvae less than 1.5 hours were found both in
first-feeding (8 days post-hatching) and in more advanced (22 days post-hatching) larvae. Bivalve
larvae passed undigested through the gut. The rate of passage through the gut varied between
12.5 and 22.5 hours, depending on the type of food organisms. The light conditions in the
laboratory seemed to be the most important cause of the observed food selection. | en |
