The Most Attractive Is Not Always the Preferred: Lessons From Necrophagous Dung Beetle Assemblages in a Region of the Central Amazon. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Dung beetles are differently attracted toward carrion types. Bovine spleen attracts more dung beetles than chicken and fish meat. ABSTRACT Resource attractiveness and preference is determinant to assess how biodiversity is structured in different ecosystems. Necrophagy is the alternative or complementary dietary habit of dung beetles, but a few studies
