Coexisting ant species differ in ability to meet their intrinsic nutritional needs
Oikos, EarlyView.Coexisting species are often assumed to reduce competition by foraging for foods that differ in nutrient composition, but few studies test whether field nutritional differences correspond to intrinsic differences in macronutrient selectivity. We compared field estimates of worker trophic position (tissue isotopes: δ15N) and worker tissue stoichiometry (
