Trophic structure in a seabird host-parasite food web: insights from stable isotope analyses. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Ecological studies on food webs rarely include parasites, partly due to the complexity and dimensionality of host-parasite interaction networks. Multiple co-occurring parasites can show different feeding strategies and thus lead to complex and cryptic ...
