Diet composition and feeding strategy of John Dory, Zeus faber, in the coastal waters of Korea

Abstract: Background: Most fish undergo prey switch from juvenile to adult. It is thought that slightly different feeding habits occur among adult fishes due to growth, spawning, habitat change, and so on. Therefore, the diet of the John Dory Zeus faber (≥ 24 cm TL) was studied in the coastal waters of Korea by analysis of stomach contents, with comparison by season and size class of diet composition and prey diversity. Monthly samples were taken from February 2017 to January 2018. Results: The results showed that the J… Show more

“…The sample's stomach was fully empty, so we cannot infer its feeding behavior at the sampling site. John dory is an opportunistic piscivorous predator that takes advantage of abundant and diverse prey items, from cephalopods to Pisces (Choi et al, 2011;İşmen et al, 2013;Kim et al, 2020). John dory is capable of stalking enough to consume selected prey fish in a group or school (Ressell, 1983).…”

“…John dory is capable of stalking enough to consume selected prey fish in a group or school (Ressell, 1983). Prey items cover the entire water column, and their diet varies by region, habitat, and size (Ressell, 1983;Stergiou & Fourtouni, 1991;Kim et al, 2020). The Black Sea is very rich in Pisces, such as whiting, sardines, horse mackerel, anchovy, picarel, bogue, and gobies (Aydın & Karadurmuş, 2012;Gücü et al, 2017;Karadurmuş et al, 2021a), which are the main prey of John dory.…”

“…Recently, it has been recorded for the first time in the Black Sea ( Aydın & Karadurmuş, 2023 ). John Dory has a large, highly protrusible mouth allowing it to predate on relatively large fish which they target using well-developed eyes ( Kim et al , 2020 ; Stergiou & Fourtouni, 1991 ).…”
