Investigating the link between morphological characteristics and diet in an island population of omnivorous reptiles (Sphenodon punctatus)

open access: yesBiology Open, 2022
The morphological characteristics that impact feeding ecology in ectotherms, particularly reptiles, are poorly understood. We used morphometric measures and stable isotope analysis (carbon-13 and nitrogen-15) to assess the link between diet and ...
