Five major ontogenetic stages were found in the diet of pinfish, Lagodon rhomboides, from Apalachee Bay, Florida, but diet and dietary breadth showed high degrees of variation with space (both local and geographic), and seasonal variation within size classes was often as dramatic as ontogenetic variation. Lagodon rhomboides demonstrated planktivory, omnivory, strict carnivory, and strict herbivory at different times, places, and developmental stages.
