Information on diet composition and feeding habits of species is very much essential for the scientific planning to develop sustainable management plans. The biology Trichiurus lepturus was studied during 2014 2018 from 6167 3346 specimens collected a weekly basis along Eastern Arabian Sea (EAS) Western Bay Bengal (WBB), respectively. Crustaceans mainly represented Acetes spp. (98.6 %) were categorized as dominant preferred (%QI = 51.35; %IRI 53.31) food item; teleosts secondary 47.46; 45.71) items molluscs accidental accessory T. lepturrus based values dietary coefficient Index Relative Importance while, completely 99.61; 99.27) with both 0.34; 0.56) crustaceans 0.01; 0.17) forming (WBB). teleostean prey belonging 23 genera encountered in guts EAS Stolephorus (17.09 %), Sardinella longiceps (6.65 Decapterus (5.75 Rastrelliger kanagurta (1.36 Megalaspis cordyla (0.89 major component; whereas, WBB, 16 representing (50 (31.52 (4.57 (2.26 formed portion by %IRI. dominated (52.61% IRI) EAS, while other crustaceans’ contribution item negligible.
