Abstract

The fatty acid composition of the total lipids in ordinary muscle and of the stomach contents of the three highly migratory fish species, Euthynnus affinis (Temminck et Schlegel), Sarda orientalis (Canter), and Elagatis bipinnulata (Quoy et Gaimard), was determined. DHA was the dominant fatty acid among the polyunsaturated fatty acids in the tissue lipids of the three fish species and the DHA levels in the lipids of the muscles were comparatively high, while those in the stomach contents originating from their prey were generally low.
