“…Lotz [ 16 ] mentioned that Anoplodactylus petiolatus would consume Mytilus tissue when the preferred food was not available. The same was observed by Bain [ 89 ] for A. californicus and by Varoli [ 41 ] for Tanystylum isabellae . While mollusks can be consumed by a variety of pycnogonid taxa, only a few species, mostly ascorhynchids, are specialized molluscan parasites.…”

“…and Pennaria wilsoni . According to Varoli [ 41 ], both Anoplodactylus stictus and Tanystylum isabellae accept Sertularia as food, but not Dynamena . Both hydroids belong to the family Sertulariidae.…”

“…Nymphon gracile was observed feeding on Amathia imbricata , using the same method as on hydroids. Varoli [ 41 ] reported that both Anoplodactylus stictus and Tanystylum isabellae would feed on Amathia distans . Sherwood et al [ 79 ] showed that Stylopallene longicauda sequesters amathamine alkaloids from Amathia wilsoni , therefore demonstrating that this bryozoan is a food source of the pycnogonid.…”

“…Bain [ 89 ] reported Anoplodactylus californicus feeding on brine shrimp (Anostraca), which were caught directly from the water column with the chelifores. Varoli [ 41 ] reported that dead specimens of the amphipods Apohyale media and Caprella danilevskii and the anostracan Artemia salina were accepted by Anoplodactylus stictus and Tanystylum isabellae , but living ones were not. Soler-Membrives et al [ 17 ] recorded Ammothella longipes holding caprellid amphipods, but it was not observed whether they were actually feeding on them.…”

Sea spiders (Pycnogonida) are a widespread and phylogenetically important group of marine arthropods. However, their biology remains understudied, and detailed information about their feeding ecology is difficult to find. Observations on pycnogonid feeding are scattered in the literature, often in older sources written in various languages, and have never been comprehensively summarized. Here we provide an overview of all information on feeding in pycnogonids that we have been able to find and review what is known on feeding specializations and preferences in the various pycnogonid taxa. We deduce general findings where possible and outline future steps necessary to gain a better understanding of the feeding ecology of one of the world’s most bizarre animal taxa.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s12983-018-0250-4) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
