The feeding habits of the sympatric species Acetes erythraeus and A. intermedius from Panguil Bay, Philippines were studied using gut contents and stable isotopes analyses. Both species are omnivorous suspension feeders of plankton, macrophyte detritus, and amorphous particulate organic materials. However, the diet of adults and juveniles differed by prey type. Gut fullness differed over 24h with a night-time peak in A. erythraeus and morning and midnight peaks in A. intermedius. Over 1 year gut fullness peaked during July to September for both species, with a minor peak during January for A. intermedius. Stable isotope analysis revealed similar δ15N values, but both species showed ontogenetic and interspecific separation of δ13C. A. erythraeus seemed to assimilate highly depleted carbon food sources by mangrove-based detrital and plankton trophic pathways, whereas A. intermedius ...
