Digital Images, a Stomach Examiner's Tool (SET) on Line
The stomach contents analysis is a tedious, time-consuming process. After 30 years of stomach contents processing, we accumulated lots of taxonomical information that is useful for the stomach contents analysis. Since the digital camera available, we recorded the taxonomical information of the whole specimens, partially digested specimens, gill arches, vertebrae, postcleithrum, otoliths, telson of crustaceans, subopercle and preopercle of fish, and setae of polychaetes, etc. With this information on line, stomach examiners can access the taxonomical information fast and easily. The objective of this web site is to provide the comprehensive information as a guide for the stomach content examiners to identify the items in the fish stomachs. Up to date, we have 552 pictures in the web.
