Ottawa : Fisheries and Oceans, 1999.(Canadian Technical Report of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences. 2267). Abstract :"This report summarizes 89 papers from the primary(53) and secondary(33) scientific literature that describe the diet and feeding ecology of demersal fish that occur on the Grand Bank, Scotian Shelf, and nearby waters. Individual studies are summarized in an annotated bibliography. The results are combined to gain an overview of the diet and feeding ecology of several of the best studied, most common, and commercially important species(4 gadids, 3 pleuronectids, redfish, wolffish, and eelpout) that occur on the Scotian Shelf and Grand Bank.
