For C.B. Wilson (1950, p.184) this species is one of the rarer form, and these Albatross specimens constitute the second record from the Pacific area, Sewell having reported it from the Indian Ocean (1932, p.338).
Timonin (1971, p.282) considers the trophic interrelations in the equatorial and tropical Indian Ocean, and divides the plankters into 6 trophic groups from the litterature and the results of studies of mouth-parts structure and intestine content. This species is a piercing and sucking carnivorous.
After Benedetti & al. (2018, p.1, Fig.2) this species belonging to the functional group 2 corresponding to small ambush feeding carnivorous. | | | Last update : 25/10/2022 | |
