| The information gathered in Argentine anchovy (Engraulis anchoita) Northern population assessment cruises allowed to perform studies on the zooplankton community of the Buenos Aires shelf since 1995. In this work the most relevant results as regards the taxonomy and size structure of the community, faunistic areas, and 'key' species in relation to the hydrographic conditions and frontal systems of the region are presented. Besides, the consequences those results might have on Argentine anchovy trophic ecology are analyzed. The taxonomic groups studied included copepods, cladocerans, appendicularians, chaetognaths, amphipods, and euphausiids. The multivariate analysis applied to quantitative data allowed to clearly distinguish three faunistic areas with... |
