Wild juveniles of F. duorarum were captured from April 2007 to February 2008, in the Celestun coastal lagoon, Yucatan, Mexico. Samplings were carried out considering all quarters of the lunar cycle and in each of the recognized seasons for this region: dry, rainy, and the Nortes (North Wind). Copepods and amphipods were the main source of food for juveniles of E duorarum. Values of delta C-13 in the muscular tissue were near -20 parts per thousand hence the feeding regime of F. duorarum in the lagoon was composed by material of marine origin. Isotopic signature differences were found between the three annual seasons. It is an opportunist generalist organism that is located in the 4(th) trophic level. The digestive enzymatic activities of both trypsin and alpha-amylase in fresh hepatopancreas tissue showed an interaction between season and molt stages (p < 0.05). Activity of the trypsin was highest during the Nortes at molt stage C (140 mU mg(-1) HP) and activity of a-amylase was higher in the Nortes at stage B-2 (674 mU mg(-1) HP). The amylase/trypsin ratio also showed significant interaction between season and molt stages (p < 0.05), with higher values in premolt stages during the rainy and Nortes seasons. Isoforms of these digestive enzymes differed in expression according to the molt stage and also to the season with expression generally being greater at stage C.
