Dietary metabarcoding reads from stomachs of fish found in the Irish Sea, Celtic Sea, English Channel, and North Sea from 2015 to 2016

Raw sequences produced in 2018 from the stomach samples of lemon sole (n=16), herring (n=36), whiting (n=27), plaice (n=24), haddock (n=15), saithe (n=20), horse mackerel (n=15), grey gurnard(n=15), and mackerel (n=38). Samples were obtained from the North Sea, Eastern channel, and Irish and Celtic Seas. The sequences were analysed using a MiSeq benchtop sequencer.
