In Kootenay Lake, B.C., Canada, Mysis feed on calanoids and cyclopoids. In Lake Mesvattnet in northern Sweden Mysis feed on cyclopoids. In aquaria experiments, we observed Mysis actively pursue and attack macrozooplankton. We suggest that the predatory feeding of Mysis is wide-spread and if cladoceran abundance is low, Mysis will prey on copepods.
