Abstract
The feeding habits of the Glowbelly Acropoma japonicum were examined based on 849 specimens collected from the coastal waters of the South Sea of Korea. The total length (TL) of these specimens ranged from 2.6 to 13.0 cm. A. japonicum fed majorly on Euphausia pacifica (Euphausiacea, % index of relative importance; IRI, 51.9). However with growth, its diet shifted from copepoda to euphausiacea. Overall, as the body size of A. japonicum increased, the mean weight of prey within the stomach (mW/ST) increased.
