This study evaluated intraspecific variations in feeding ecology using stomach content and stable isotope analyses across sex (males vs. females), ontogenetic stage (juvenile vs. adult) and season (cold vs. warm). Between 2019 and 2022 a total of 251 stomachs containing identifiable prey items and 80 muscle tissue samples were collected. Diet was dominated by pelagic fishes and cephalopods, with jumbo squid (\n                    <jats:italic>Dosidicus gigas<\/jats:italic>\n                    ), paper nautilus (\n                    <jats:italic>Argonauta<\/jats:italic>\n                    spp.), Pacific mackerel (\n                    <jats:italic>Scomber japonicus<\/jats:italic>\n                    ) and finescale triggerfish (\n                    <jats:italic>Balistes polylepis<\/jats:italic>\n                    ) among the most important prey. Stomach content analysis revealed significant seasonal variation in diet composition, whereas no differences were detected between sexes or ontogenetic stages. Stable isotopes analysis showed no significant differences in\n                    <jats:italic>\u03b4<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sup>13<\/jats:sup>\n                    C or\n                    <jats:italic>\u03b4<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sup>15<\/jats:sup>\n                    N values among seasons, sexes or ontogenetic stages. However, mixing model results indicated a seasonal shift in resource use: planktivorous fish (\n                    <jats:italic>Sardinops sagax, Lagocephalus<\/jats:italic>\n                    and\n                    <jats:italic>Decapterus macrosoma<\/jats:italic>\n                    ) contributed more during warm season, while piscivorous fishes (\n                    <jats:italic>S. japonicus, B. polylepis, Caranx caballus, Auxis<\/jats:italic>\n                    spp. and\n                    <jats:italic>Fistularia<\/jats:italic>\n                    spp.) dominated across sexes, ontogenetic stages and during the cool season. Overall, these results suggest that striped marlin exhibit flexible, seasonally driven trophic behaviour likely mediated by changes in prey availability, whereas sex and ontogeny have limited influence on dietary patterns in this population.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jfb.70518","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,1]],"date-time":"2026-06-01T06:10:43Z","timestamp":1780294243000},"page":"1402-1417","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Seasonal, sex and ontogenetic trophic shifts of striped\n                    <scp>M<\/scp>\n                    arlin (\n                    <i>Kajikia audax<\/i>\n                    ) in\n                    <scp>C<\/scp>\n                    abo\n                    <scp>S<\/scp>\n                    an\n                    <scp>L<\/scp>\n                    ucas,\n                    <scp>B<\/scp>\n                    aja\n                    <scp>C<\/scp>\n                    alifornia\n                    <scp>S<\/scp>\n                    ur,\n                    <scp>M<\/scp>\n                    \u00e9xico"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"109","author":[{"given":"Pamela","family":"Pacheco\u2010Aldana","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Pesquerias Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional\u2010Centro Interdisciplinario de Ciencias Marinas  La Paz Baja California Sur Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2257-3534","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sofia","family":"Ortega\u2010Garcia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Pesquerias Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional\u2010Centro Interdisciplinario de Ciencias Marinas  La Paz Baja California Sur Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Leonardo Andres","family":"Abitia\u2010Cardenas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Pesquerias Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional\u2010Centro Interdisciplinario de Ciencias Marinas  La Paz Baja California Sur Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Antonella","family":"Preti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Marine Sciences, University of California Santa Cruz  Santa Cruz California USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0082-1880","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ulianov","family":"Jakes\u2010Cota","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Pesquerias Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional\u2010Centro Interdisciplinario de Ciencias Marinas  La Paz Baja California Sur Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4226-0674","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Arturo","family":"Tripp\u2010Valdez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Pesquerias Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional\u2010Centro Interdisciplinario de Ciencias Marinas  La Paz Baja California Sur Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,31]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","first-page":"6","article-title":"Feeding of striped marlin, Kajikia audax (Philippi 1987), from the area off the coast of Mazatlan, Sinaloa, Mexico","volume":"7","author":"Abitia\u2010C\u00e1rdenas L.
