| | PREY DELIVERED TO ROSEATE TERN CHICKS IN THE AZORES (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14) |
 | | Prey offered to chicks and feeding frequency were examined in relation to the age of the chick, fish size, and time of day. |
 | | Overall, Trumpet fish (Macroramphosus scolopax) predominated in the diet, but sauri (Scomberesox saurus and Nanichthys simulans), mackerel (Trachurus picturatus), garfish (Belone belone gracilis), and lanternfish (Myctophidae) were important on certain days. |
 | | Individuos de Belone belone g*'acilis se 11evaron temprano en la mafiana y los de la familia Myctophidae fueron ingeridos principalmente cerca del mediodia, cuando el aprovisionamiento de otros tipos de presas era menor. |
