Predation potential by various epibenthic organisms on commercial bivalve species in Prince Edward Island : preliminary results / by G. Miron, T. Landry and N. MacNair. : Fs97-6/2392E
The predation behaviour of three marine epibenthic invertebrates was examined in a laboratory setting at the Ellerslie Shellfish Hatchery (PEI) in December 2000. Experiments conducted addressed prey species and prey size selection by predators. Predator species used were green crab, common starfish and moon shell. Predation was monitored by determining the mortality rates of four bivalve species in 4 d trials where predators were present or absent (control). Single- and multiple-choice experiments were carried out in relation to the prey species being challenged by the predator.
