Density and temperature dependent feeding rates in an established and an alien freshwater gammarid fed on chironomid larvae
We compared feeding rates of the well-established, non-invasive amphipod Gammarus roeselii with those of the invasive Dikerogammarus villosus at different prey densities and different temperatures in laboratory experiments using chironomid larvae as prey. Feeding rates were very variable in both spe...
