The food and feeding behaviour of water monitor, Varanus salvator, in Malaysia
1994
Traeholt, C. (Copenhagen Univ., Copenhagen (Denmark). Institute of Population Biology)
Faecal pellets of Varanus salvator collected in Pulau Tulai in the South China Sea revealed that individuals there mainly feed on crabs and tourists' leftovers. The stomach contents of monitor lizards living in an oil palm estate in Peninsular Malaysia show that the main diet in that habitat consisted of various types of insects and occasionally small rodents. Hatchlings were strictly insectivorous. Both groups of lizards exhibited area-concentrated foraging behaviour and their preferred hunting technique was "open pursuit"

Food composition of Abramis brama was studied in the shallow, meso-eutrophic Hamry reservoir (Czech Republic). Fish were sampled during the daytime in the pre-spawning period (April), the post-spawning (June), summer (July) and autumn (October) in 2011. The bream sampled comprised two main size groups: small (124-186 mm) and large (210-315 mm) standard length. Twenty specimens of each size group (except April - 40 large fish) were taken for analysis on each sampling occasion. Food composition was evaluated using gravimetric methods. Over the whole season, detritus and aquatic vegetation were the dominant dietary items taken. During summer, the diet of large bream comprised mainly aquatic vegetation. Benthic macroinvertebrates and zooplankton formed a minor part of bream diet over the whole season. Specific food habits of bream could be explained by specific conditions within the reservoir and available food resources.

Commercial fish landing at Abu Qir and Alanfoushy markets was the source of Siganus rivulatus and Siganus luridus sampled for food and feeding habits analysis. Food indices and food content were studies in stomach analyses of 1485 fishes
