Niche occupancy of Jamaican bat caves: Diversity increases isotopic niche packing

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Tropical bat caves are home to hundreds of thousands of bats of multiple species. In Jamaica, we found that isotopic niche packing is the likely mechanism of coexistence at more diverse sites.
