Stable isotopes and cellulase activity as evidence for detritus as a food source for juvenile Gulf menhaden. Deegan, L., A., Peterson, B., J., & Portier, R. Estuaries, 13(1):14-19, 1990. abstract bibtex Menhaden are one of the most abundant components of fish communities in Gulf and Atlantic estuaries. Juvenile menhaden have been reported to have zooplankton, phytoplankton, and Spartina-derived detritus in their guts. However, there has been disagreement over the importance of the detritus as a food source. We show, using physiological and stable isotope evidence, that detritus can be used by juvenile Gulf menhaden. Their diet is very roughly 30% detritus- and 70% plankton-based.
