Abstract

Teleost fishes and crustaceans such as shrimp and crabs usually form the major gut content of snappers. In September 2021, two specimens of crimson jobfish (Pristipomoides filamentosus) belonging to the family Lutjanidae were observed with entirely ascidians as diet in their fully gorged stomachs.
