The quantitative evaluation of the food items was carried out by the combination of the following analysis: Frequency of Occurrence, Volurnetric Method, Volumetric Mean Index and Relative Importilnce Index. Diet consisted of: detritus and vascular plat residues as a primary food; unicellular algae as' secondary food; and remains of insects and fish, graminean seeds, fiJamentous algae, cJadocerans, ostracods, rotifers and copepods as occasional food. Wedetected a difference in food preferences between juveniles and adults and a variation in the consurnption proportíons of some food iteros duringtbe rainy and dry seasons. Thus, we concluded that O. aureus is an omnivorous species with prefeJ;'eAce for detritus<¡md vascular plant remain. Feeding seems to be, deterrnin
