The Food of Three Centrarchids and an Ameiurid in Northern Utah During 1949-50
This is a study of the food of pond fish in northern Utah. The species examined in the family Centrachidae were largemouth black bass, Micropterus salmoides (Lacepede), green sunfish, Lepomis cyanellus Rafinesque, and common bluegill, Lepomis macrochirus Rafinesque, together with black bullhead, Ame...
