Larvae progressively selected larger prey and exhibited increased carbon content concurrent with preflexion development of feeding and locomotory structures as well as positive selection of cladocerans over other prey (Chesson's index), whereas copepod nauplii dominated the diets of earlier stages.

It is revealed that the different life stages of tuna co-occur with mesopelagic species in the mixed layer reveals the interesting possibility of ecological interactions between the different larvae.
