Abstract:
The trophic ecology of mixotrophic, zooxanthellate jellyfishes potentially spans a wide spectrum between autotrophy and heterotrophy. However, their degree of trophic plasticity along this spectrum is not well known. To better characterize their trophic ecology, we sampled the zooxanthellate medusa Mastigias papua in contrasting environments and sizes in Palau (Micronesia). We characterized their trophic ecology using isotopic (bulk δ13C and δ15N), elemental (C:N ratios), and fatty acid compositions. The different trophic indicators were correlated or anti-correlated as expected (Pearson’s cor

Abstract:
The sclerotised beaks of cephalopods have emerged as useful material to track their habitat and trophic ecology by using stable isotope analysis, because beaks grow continuously throughout their life without replacement. Here, stable isotopes of δ13C and δ15N in five continuous sections along the crest were measured to investigate the potential ontogenetic habitat shift and foraging-ecology change of Dosidicus gigas from the oceanic waters off Ecuador. In total, 90 sections from 18 upper beaks were examined with δ13C values of −18.99 to −17.49‰ and δ15N values of 0.69 to 7.09‰. Kruskal–Wallis

For instance, consumers may synthesize confounding non-dietary sourced markers from precursor molecules, and environmental conditions also affect fatty acid compos

Abstract:
Conodonts were the first vertebrates to develop mineralized dental tools, known as elements. Recent research suggests that conodonts were macrophagous predators and/or scavengers but we do not know how this feeding habit emerged in the earliest coniform conodonts, since most studies focus on the derived, ‘complex’ conodonts. Previous modelling of element position and mechanical properties indicate they were capable of food processing. A direct test would be provided through evidence of in vivo element crown tissue damage or through in vivo incorporated chemical proxies for a shift in their tro

Trophic ecology of elasmobranchs caught off Gujarat, India, as inferred from stable isotopes. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 68: . Habitat use and trophic levels were investigated in 13 species of elasmobranch caught off Gujarat, India, through their isotopic composition. Most of the animals were fished commercially and were immature, suggesting that fisheries operate in nursery habitats. All of the sharks analysed except Rhincodon typus had a higher estimated trophic level (>3.8) than rays and guitarfish (<3.8)

Abstract:
Studying the coexistence of native species and invasive species with similar functional traits, habitat usage, and feeding habits is crucial for understanding the dynamics of invasion and ecological changes in the invaded ecosystem. Due to competitive exclusion and often also dissemination of crayfish plague pathogen (Aphanomyces astaci, Schikora), North American crayfish represent a major threat to European native crayfish. Their co-occurrence is often only temporary, making studies investigating trophic ecology of native and non-native crayfish species rare. In this study, trophic niche and

Abstract:
The structural and functional change of shallow-water coral reefs is a reality that is still not fully understood. In many areas of the world, such as the Caribbean shallow waters, it has been shown that macroalgae, sponges, and octocorals occupy the seascape left by stress-sensitive scleractinians, which did not resist human impacts. In this paper, we analyze different drivers for the current- day resilience of one of the “winning” taxa, the octocorals, in the face of changing environmental conditions, paying attention to existing gaps in knowledge.

Abstract:
Trophic relationships of large pelagic predators can determine the structure and dynamics of oceanic food webs. The feeding habits and trophic ecology of five large pelagic fish (Acanthocybium solandri, Coryphaena hippurus, Elagatis bipinnulata, Thunnus albacares and Thunnus atlanticus) in the Saint Peter and Saint Paul Archipelago were evaluated to determine whether there is a trophic-niche overlap or resource partitioning among them. Eighty prey items found in 1528 stomachs were identified and grouped into Cephalopoda, Cnidaria, Crustacea, Gastropoda, Teleostei and Tunicata. Exocoetidae and

Abstract:
The trophic levels of nodes in directed networks can reveal their functional properties. Moreover, the trophic coherence of a network, defined in terms of trophic levels, is related to properties such as cycle structure, stability and percolation. The standard definition of trophic levels, however, borrowed from ecology, suffers from drawbacks such as requiring basal nodes, which limit its applicability. Here we propose simple improved definitions of trophic levels and coherence that can be computed on any directed network. We demonstrate how the method can identify node function in examples i

Abstract:
Trophic ecology of macrobenthic communities in estuaries of the northern Gulf of Mexico was used to infer community function, determine effects of contaminants on macrobenthos, and provide insight into community responses following disturbance. The taxa that numerically dominated the region included few large, deep-burrowing suspension feeders that typify estuaries elsewhere. This pattern is indicative of disturbance, and results in dominance by trophic groups that live near the sediment–water interface (early benthic-community succession). Trophic structure was significantly related to severa
