spinus. The presence ofSymbiodiniaceaeis consistent with studies showing that parrotfishes are vectors of dispersal for viableSymbiodinium(Porto et al.2008; Grupstra et al.2021). Diatoms, present on 92% of the bitecores, are reported to have a symbiotic relationship withCalothrix(Foster et al....
prey energy density and predator body size. Since high-resolution diet data isn’t always available, we also simulated how increasing dietary information progressively influenced consumption rate estimates. The greatest improvement in consumption rate estimates occurred when diet variation of 2–3 stanzas...
