Perca fluviatilis Data from the present study indicate that cannibalism emergence is not consistenstly size dependent in Eurasian perch larvae or young juveniles, and that re-establishment of this phenomenon at restocking is independent of the initial predator-prey relationship because size heterogeneity is negatively related to growth rate Present Mandiki, 2007
Sander lucioperca Cannibalism seems to be apply only to Central and Eastern European regions, not to Western Europe Present Deeler and Willemsen, 1964
Sander lucioperca In rearing conditions, cannibalism has been observed with individuals 2 to 4 cm long. In natural conditions, the cannibalism is maximal with individuals 1.1-2.0 cm long Present Chodorowski, 1975
Sander lucioperca Cannibalism could be a big problem Present Schlumberger and Proteau, 1993
Sander lucioperca This includes the onset of cannbalism due to the size differences bewteen indifviduals of this species. Bi-modality of size frequency distributions is a well-known phenomenon in this species. An earlier start of cannibaslim was observed in pike-perch of smaller size (less than 30 mm) fed in laboratory experiments using artifical diets, however cannibalism ceases at aout 5 cm body length (1.2 g). Present Hilge and Steffens, 1996
Sander lucioperca The first cannibalistic attacks were observed at 4-6th day after rearing Present Mamcarz, 1997
Sander lucioperca Larvae are cannibalistic on their siblings [Cannibalism by adults also takes place when larvae are > 18 mm] Present Craig, 2000
Sander lucioperca Mortality at all densities was mainly caused by cannibalism II type behaviour (27-35% of total). The first signs of cannibalism were observed in larvae measuring 15 mm in total length, and it increased after the larvae had exceeded 20 mm, consequently, it occurred primarily during the period when they fed exclusively on artificial feed Present Szkudlarek and Zakes, 2007
Sander vitreus Some cannibaslim was noted especially near the end of yolk absorption Absent Hurley, 1972
Sander vitreus Cannibalism is one of the most important source sof predation and in some situations amon fry, it may be the principal factor Present Colby, 1979

Sander vitreus Present Present Hecht and Pienaar, 1993
Sander vitreus Canibalism can occur in first-feeding fry Absent Colsesante, 1996
Sander vitreus Most mortality from cohort cannibaslim occurs from trunk attacks, not the result of successful consumption f the prey, which is from the tail first. Cannibalism begin as the fry begin feeding Present Summerfelt, 1996
Sander vitreus Larvae are cannibalistic on their siblings [Cannibalism by adults also takes place weh nlarvae are > 18 mm] Present Craig, 2000

Salmo trutta fario It is probable that the smaller brown trout may be successful in picking up a few of the eggs of their own species Absent Greeley, 1932
Salvelinus alpinus It is not an uncommon occurrence that a young salmonid, having become cannibalistic, will take several days to fully ingest a captured sibling of similar dimensions Present Aasjord and Wallace, 1987
Salvelinus fontinalis Small, mature males were the most abundant of the egg eaters Absent Greeley, 1932
Thymallus arcticus Most of the grayling were eating fish eggs, but it was impossible to tell whether they were grayling of pike eggs Absent Bishop, 1971

Cottus gobio The occurrence of egg cannibalism in guarding male varied throughout the season and reached a maximum of 80% in the sample of 12 March Present Marconato and Bisazza, 1988
Silurus glanis Fish loss to cannibalims was equal to 2% and 17 % of overall mortality in these groups respectively Absent Wolnicki, 1998
Silurus glanis In the course of the trial, the fish manifested neither sibling cannibalism nor any indications of an aggressive behavior Absent Wolnicki and Myszkowski, 1998
Silurus glanis Cannibalism was 7% lower in case of fish reared in darkness than in group [The level of cannibalism was directly related to stocking density in that experiment]. Cannibalism may be reduced by fish rearing in darkness, at stocking densities under 25 ind. dm-3 Present Kozlowski and Poczyczynski, 1999
