Stable isotope analysis of ectoparasites as a tool for understanding trophic interactions with mammalian hosts. [PDF]
Med Vet EntomolEctoparasites showed significant δ15N enrichment compared to their hosts, indicating trophic enrichment, but δ13C preservation varied. Lice, fleas and ticks preserve their hosts' isotopic fingerprints to varying degrees, with lice reflecting host dietary patterns most closely, likely due to their exclusive, host‐specific feeding behaviour. The presence
