    Abstract

    The paper is based on materials on D.mawsoni feeding collected by authors in the four near-continental seas of the Indian Ocean Antarctic area (Dupont D’Urville, Mawson, Davis, and Cosmonaut Seas) and on the Banzare Bank during 2004-2008. The food relationships are considered. The qualitative and quantitative composition of diet for young and adult Antarctic toothfish is studied. The predominant food objects are identified.
