Using Next-Generation Sequencing to Disentangle the Diet and Incidence of Intestinal Parasites of Falkland Flightless Steamer Duck <i>Tachyeres brachypterus</i> and Patagonian Crested Duck <i>Lophonetta specularioides</i> Sharing a South Atlantic Island

Using Next-Generation Sequencing to Disentangle the Diet and Incidence of Intestinal Parasites of Falkland Flightless Steamer Duck <i>Tachyeres brachypterus</i> and Patagonian Crested Duck <i>Lophonetta specularioides</i> Sharing a South Atlantic Island

Species overlapping in habitat use can cohabit depending on how they exploit resources. To understand segregation in resource use, an exhaustive knowledge of the diet is required. We aimed to disentangle the diet composition of the Falkland Flightless Steamer Duck <i>Tachyeres brachypterus<...
