Habitat structure changes the relationships between predator behavior, prey behavior, and prey survival rates
(2019-06-01)
The individual behavioral traits of predators and prey sometimes determine the outcome of their interactions. Here, we examine whether changes to habitat complexity alter the effects of predator and prey behavior on their ...
Diet, prey narcotization and biochemical composition of salivary glands secretions of the volutid snail Odontocymbiola magellanica
(Cambridge University Press, 2010-08)
Odontocymbiola magellanica is a neogastropod very common in Patagonian shallow waters. It feeds exclusively on molluscs inhabiting the same benthic community. Field studies showed that prey preferences are live gastropods ...
Prey C:P ratio and phosphorus recycling by a planktivorous fish: advantages of fish selection towards pelagic cladocerans
(Wiley, 2015-04)
Prey selection by the small planktivore Galaxias maculatus and phosphorus gain depending on diet has been examined related to predator–prey daily distribution. Prey elemental composition (C:P ratio) was analysed as a factor ...
Prey composition of Peregrine Falcons (Falco peregrinus cassini) preying upon a mixed-species seabird colony in Argentine PatagoniaComposición de la dieta de Halcones Peregrinos (Falco peregrinus cassini) depredando en una colonia mixta de aves marinas en la Patagonia Argentina
(Neotropical Ornithological Society, 2014)
Predation is one of the main factors determining breeding strategies in many seabird species (Lack 1968, Burger & Gochfeld 1994, Gaston 2004). Among avian predators, raptors such as eagles, owls and falcons regularly prey ...
Is red spotted green frog (Hypsiboas punctatus, Anura: Hylidae) selecting its preys? The importance of prey availability
(Revista de Biología Tropical, 2009-09)
The study of the feeding ecology of amphibians is an old issue in herpetology. Notwithstanding, the lack of food resources data in many studies of amphibians feeding has lead to partial understanding of frog feeding ...
