Examining intra- and interspecific variability in the diet and carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios of kingklip and monkfish caught off the West and South coasts of South Africa

Magister Scientiae (Biodiversity and Conservation Biology) - MSc (Biodiv and Cons Biol) === Kingklip (Genypterus capensis) and monkfish (Lophius vomerinus) and are ecologically and economically important demersal fish species that are found along both the eastern and western parts of southern Africa...

Despite their commercial value, limited information exists focusing on the trophic ecology of these two species.
