摘要

Abstract

The current study explored Aurelia aurita and Rhopilema esculent um consumption by silver pomfret juveniles

as well as their prey selection between the two jellyfish species. Silver pomfret juveniles weighing 1±0.1 g actively preyed on both the species. Their daily A. aurita consumption was 11.6 times their own body weights regardless of the size of A. aurita medusae. Their daily R. esculent um consumption was 13

9.1

and 4.1 times their own body weights when the R. esculentum medusae were 10

and 40 mm in bell diameter

respectively. The survival rates of the R. esculent um were higher than those of the A. aurita. When the R. esculent um medusae were more than 30 mm in bell diameter

their survival rate exceeded 92%. Silver pomfrets serve as a type of potential predators on A. aurita in coastal waters

and they have little influence on R. esculent um with a size exceeding 30 mm. Besides

A. aurita may be able to be used as fish prey in silver pomfret artificial breeding.
