Size–frequency distribution of scallops eaten or not eaten by small (64 ± 11 mm) Asterias rubens during a feeding experiment. Scallops not eaten were randomly distributed amongst 12 tanks including 3 tanks containing 3 small A. rubens. Scallops were provided at a density of 10 m−2, and thus those not eaten could be any 30 from the above size distribution. Size of scallops eaten were measured after A. rubens had consumed the scallop
