| Popis: |
Sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria, Anoplopomatidae) and shortraker rockfish (Sebastes borealis, Sebastidae) co-occur in deepwater marine habitats in the northeast Pacific. Both species are economically valuable, but their ecologies are not well known. We used stable isotope analysis of carbon and nitrogen to explore isotopic niches of A. fimbria and S. borealis in two distinct locations—a deep strait in the inside passage area and an open coastal area of the continental shelf, both in southeast Alaska, USA. Anoplopoma fimbria and S. borealis exhibited similar positions of isotopic niches based on nitrogen and carbon isotopic ratios, suggesting potential interspecific competition, especially in the inside location. In addition, S. borealis had a smaller niche breadth compared to A. fimbria in the coastal location. Both species had enriched nitrogen and carbon isotopic ratios in the inside location compared to the coastal location. Differences in isotopic niches between these two locations suggest the possibility of location-specific variation in isotopic niches of these two species of widespread, abundant deepwater fishes. |
