Assessing the Influence of Interference Competition on Ecologically Similar Species Threatened by Habitat Loss 评估干扰性竞争对受栖息地丧失威胁的生态相似物种的影响

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
We staged dyadic interaction trials between two kangaroo rat species threatened by habitat loss to test whether one species dominates in direct interactions in the field. We found that Stephens’ kangaroo rat (Dipodomys stephensi) residents and intruders were dominant over Dulzura kangaroo rat (Dipodomys simulans). These results suggest that D. simulans
