Comparison of isotopic turnover dynamics in two different muscles of a coral reef fish during the settlement phase

Abstract: Summary:The temporal variation in carbon and nitrogen isotopic compositions (noted as δ 13 C and δ 15 N) was investigated in the convict surgeonfish (Acanthurus triostegus) at Moorea (French Polynesia). Over a period of 24 days, juveniles were reared in aquaria and subjected to two different feeding treatments: granules or algae. The dynamics of δ 13 C and δ 15 N in two muscles (the adductor mandibulae complex and the epaxial musculature) having different functions were compared. At the end of experiments, a s… Show more

“…type of prey, foraging location) but may also reflect internal physiological changes during special events such as ontogeny, metamorphosis, starvation or even pregnancy (e.g. Habran et al 2010;Hammerschlag-Peyer et al 2011;Frédérich et al 2012;Gajdzik et al 2015). Furthermore, the S isotope ratios mostly reflect the fish position within the reef-scape (lagoon versus outer reef) and the partitioning of microhabitats within each reef zone (pelagic versus benthic compartments).…”
