CC3 or C4 macrophytes: A specific carbon source for the development of semi-aquatic and terrestrial arthropods in Central Amazonian river-floodplains according to δ13C values
C4 plant species were proposed to generally represent inferior food sources compared to C3 plants thus are avoided by herbivores, particularly insects. This was tested in semi-aquatic and terrestrial arthropods from Amazonian river-floodplains by carbon isotope discrimination (δ13C). Two semi-aquati...
