Grey-sided voles(Myodes rufocanus)and bank voles(Myodes glareolus)co-exist in boreal forests in northern Scandinavia.Previous studies suggest that the 2 species interact interspecifically,the grey-sided vole being t...
We used stable isotopes of carbon and nitrogen to study the trophic niche of two species of insectivorous lizards,the Husab sand lizard Pedioplanis husabensis and Bradfield’s Namib day gecko living sympatrically in t...
