Significant differences between sea- sons were observed in the numeric (F = , P < ), and weight overlap (F = , P < ). All overlaps values (by number and weight) in the two seasons were significantly lower (P < ). Discussion Allen et al. (1995) mentioned that kelp bass is an active predator around kelp beds and rocky reef habitats, feeding on motile organisms including fish, squid, octopi and benthic crustaceans, and concluded that a large portion of their prey were taken from the water column. These results were confirmed for adult kelp bass inhabiting the kelp beds of Todos Santos Bay, Ensenada, that fed mainly on fishes (Mendoza-Carranza, 1995). On the other hand, along the southern Califor- nia coast, kelp bass feed in the mid water and suprabenthos of the kelp beds,. SUMMER WINTER Fig. 7.
