The relationship of the food habits to the habitat of nigorobuna larvae was investigated at Yamanoshita. Bay in the south basin of Lake Biwa from 1964 to 1968. Quantitative analyses of feeding of the larvae were for consideration on the significance of the aquatic plant belt as the habitat of the larvae. Though the larvae are more or less distributed throughout the aquatic plant belt, they are very abundant in the submerged plant belt. The more abundant floating plant materials present, the higher the density of the larvae is observed. It is commonly observed that there is a fairly good quantity of plankters available for the nigorobuna larvae in the aquatic plant belt, and their amount increases corresponding to that of the floating plant materials. The nigorobuna larvae devoured small Crustacea and chironomid larvae which are commonly found in the aquatic plant belts, above all they eat Chydorus intensively. The bulk of the gut contents of the larvae increase in accordance with the increase of the amount of the plankters. The food habits of the nigorobuna larvae is discussed in relation to their habitat preference. It is suggested that a submerged plant belt with abundant floating plant materials where numerous small cladocerans flourish, is the most favourable as a nursery ground for the nigorobuna larvae.
