Abstract

A study was carried out to analyse gut content of Sardinella sp. at Kampung Awat- Awat, along Lawas coastal water in November 2017, December 2017, August 2018, September 2018 and October 2018. The specimens were collected by using 1-inch purse seine net. A total of 160 individuals of Sardinella , f mbriata were dissected and the gut content was identified respectively under light compound microscope. The diet composition of the sardines was analysed using Index of Fullness and percentage composition of food items. The fecundity of female Sardinella was also analysed using Gonadosomatic Index. Throughout the gut content analysis, Sardinella. fimbriata preferred to consume Cyanophyta in August, Dinoflagellates in September, Cyanophyta and Zooplankton in October, Dinoflagellates in November and Zooplankton in December. The feeding behaviour of Sardinella, fimbriata was influenced by seasonal changes and gender did not have any significant.
