Our paper on diet habits of highly migratory pelagic predators was just published in the ICES Journal of Marine Science! We combined stomach content, carbon and nitrogen stable isotope, and fatty acid analysis to investigate diet habits of individual striped marlin, blue marlin, and dolphinfish. Our results indicate that individuals of all three species are generalist predators, which makes sense given patchy availability of prey over large distances.
