Lantern Fish Migration: Myctophum asperum (left) and Symbolophorus californiensis (right) After Sassa (2001)

Backgrounds and Purpose Kuroshio-Oyashio Transition Zone (KOTZ) and Kuroshio Extension (KE) are the key areas for recruitment of sardine, anchovy, and mackerel Mortality of anchovy larvae in KOTZ-KE is mainly caused by predation by black snake mackerel (Nealotus tripes). Biological interactions between juvenile small pelagics and myctophids may be possible because 1) myctophids are abundant in KOTZ and 2) both are zooplankton feeder Seek for possible interaction between small pelagics and micronectonic mesopelagic fishes in KOTZ DayNight Small pelagics Meso-pelagics ?

Surface Trawl Survey in Kuroshio/Oyashio Transition Zone in Spring since 1996 Net opening diam.: 27m Towing at: 3.5 knots at night Typical towing depth: 0-30m Tansyu Maru (499GT, 1800HP): Hokuho Maru (664 GT, 2200HP 2000-

Prey Composition of Juvenile Small Pelagic Fishes and Myctophids (Adults & Juveniles) in May 2002

Stomach Contents of Sardine and Prey Availability in Kuroshio Extension during (Saito et al., 2001) Small copepods (<0.8mm BL, Paracaranus etc.) are abundant Large copepods (Calanus pacificus etc.) was less abundant Optimum prey size for juvenile sardine (25-40mm BL) is mm Juvenile sardine (>33 mm BL) selectively fed on large copepods Larval sardine (26-31 mm BL) preyed upon small copepods Juveniles of both myctophids and small pelagics fed on mm BL Paracalanus in KOTZ (our results) Size of prey (μm) Prey density (ind m -3 )

Summary Juvenile small pelagics and myctophids (ad.+juv.) horizontally overlap in surface waters (0-30m) of KOTZ in spring Black snake mackerel shift their diet from anchovy larvae, to krill and myctophids with ontogenetic descent Corycaeus and Oncea (epipelagic) were preyed by juveniles of small pelagics and some juvenile myctophids Krill, Pleuromamma and Metridia (deil vertical migrants with photophores) were exclusively consumed by myctophids Possible competition for large copepods Further studies are needed for 1) competition with juvenile myctophids for epipelagic ZP, 2) indirect effects of black snake mackerel, 3) quantitative evaluation
