Abstract
On the basis of the multidisciplinary expedition of the TINRO-center during March-early June 1998 on R/V TINRO in the northern part of the Sea of Okho tsk, the materials on the feeding of walleye pollack were obtained. The hor izontal distribution of both general and partial indices of stomach filling of mature walleye pollack is given. The graphs representing the diurnal rh ythm of its feeding are presented, the diurnal food rations and the ratios between zooplankton and its components and nekton are calculated.
