Abstract:Understanding the ecological patterns of invasive species and their habitats require an understanding of the species' foraging ecology. Stable carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen (δ 15 N) isotope values provide useful information into the study of animal ecology and evolution, since the isotope ratios of consumers reflect consumer's dietary patterns.Nevertheless, the lack of species-and element-specific laboratory-derived turnover rates could limit their application. Using a laboratory-based dual stable isotope trace… Show more
