This dataset gathers trophic and parasitic information on European jack mackerel (Trachurus trachurus) collected in the English Channel during the CAMANOC survey in 2014.
Each individual fish is described by size, trophic status (δ¹³C, δ¹⁵N, C/N and calculate trophic level), dietary items from stomach content, and levels of infestation by the parasite nematode Anisakis in 6 tissues (abdominal cavity, liver, gonads, stomach, left and right muscle).

Data and analyses in this dataset were gathered during projects funded by the Ifremer Scientific Directorate through two “Politique de Site” projects, RETROGRAD (2014-2015) and PATROFLU (2021-2022), and by the French government, the Region Hauts-de-France and Ifremer, through the RECOMANCHE action of the CPER MARCO project (2015-2021). The SFR Campus de la Mer (https://sfr-campusdelamer.univ-littoral.fr/home/) is also acknowledged for the funding of a workshop about the role of parasites in the marine ecosystem. PC would also like to thank Sarah Werquin for fruitful discussion during her master project. We want to thank crew and PI of the CAMANOC survey for their help during fish sampling. Stable isotope ratios were measured by the Cornell University Stable Isotope laboratory. Bruno Ernande, Sebastien Lefebvre (PIs of the RETROGRAD project), Morgane Travers-Trolet and Carolina Giraldo are warmly thanked for fruitful discussions about the results and suggestions about our work with this data.
