First evidence of presence of plastic debris in digestive system of Mola mola (L.) from western Mediterranean Sea
2022
Ahuir-Baraja, Ana E.
Ingestion of marine debris by ocean sunfishes is not very well documented. As the feeding behaviour of these giants of the seas is very similar to marine turtles, it is expected that the accidental ingestion of plastics could be registered in these species of fish. With this work it is noticed for the first time the presence of a blue plastic fragment, classified by its size as a mesoplastic, in the digestive system of Mola mola (L.) (Molidae) from western Mediterranean Sea.
