Title | Recruitment mechanisms of bloater inLake Michigan: an analysis of the predatory gauntlet |
Creator | Luecke, Chris Rice, J. A. Crowder, L. B. Yeo, S. E. Binkowski, F. P. |
Description | Laboratory experiments were used to evaluate the potential importance of size-dependent predation on bloaters through the first 1–2 mo after hatching. Of the potential predators encountered by bloater eggs and larvae during their hypolimnetic phase, only scuplins appear important. Sculpin feeding rate on eggs increased when egg or larval density was high. The presence of amphipods as alternative prey enhanced predation on eggs when on cobble but reduced predation when eggs were on sand.... |
