- Abstract
The article presents a study which appraises diet and feeding habits of common and dusky dolphins. It states that diet composition was determined from dolphin stomachs while feeding strategy was assessed through the Costello graphical method. It concludes that common dolphins in the Southwestern South Atlantic Ocean are found to feed primarily on Argentine anchovy (E. anchoita).
