| Title | High Interspecific Variation in Nutrient Excretion Within a Guild of Closely Related Caddisfly Species |
| Creator | Balik, Jared A. Taylor, Brad W. Washko, Susan E. Wissinger, Scott A. |
| Description | Understanding the amount of variation in functional traits between closely related species within guilds is critical for understanding links between community composition and ecosystem processes. Nutrient excretion is an important link between animals and their environments, and aquatic invertebrate communities can supply a considerable proportion of ecosystem nutrient demand via excretion. We quantified nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) excretion rates of 10 species of larval caddisflies that... |
