以海绵为食的玳瑁
食海绵动物 (英语:Spongivore )是生物学中以海绵 为食物的动物,在海龟 中的玳瑁尤其常见。玳瑁 演化出坚硬尖锐的嘴,使得它们能够到达珊瑚礁 的缝隙中获取海绵。[ 1] 加勒比玳瑁种群有高达95%的食物来自海绵构成。[ 2]
主刺盖鱼 (Pomacanthus imperator )[ 3] [ 4] 、斑点棱箱鲀 (Lactophrys bicaudalis )[ 5] 和墨西哥湾冠鳞单棘鲀 (Stephanolepis hispidus )[ 6] 也是已知的食海绵珊瑚礁鱼类,其中盖刺鱼科的三色刺蝶鱼 食用海绵占其食物的96%。[ 7] 已知某些种类的裸鳃类 动物选择性地以特定海绵为食。[ 8]
