SUMMARY
From an ecological point of view, small/middle-sized pelagic fishes such as Trachurus spp. and Scomber spp. occupy a particular trophic level between the phyto-zooplanktivorous pelagic fishes (e_g, sardines and anchovies) and the large piscivorous species (e_g, tuna and related species). The study focused on four species found in the Adriatic Sea: the Atlantic chub mackerel (Scomber colias), the Atlantic mackerel (S. scombrus), the Mediterranean horse mackerel (Trachurus mediterraneus) and the Atlantic horse mackerel (T. trachurus). Stable nitrogen isotope value (δ15 N) is a proxy of the trophic level of a species . . .
