Stable isotope analyses reveal unique trophic role of reef manta rays (Mobula alfredi) at a remote coral reef
Stable isotope analyses provide the means to examine the trophic role of animals in complex food webs. Here, we used stable isotope analyses to characterize the feeding ecology of reef manta rays (Mobula alfredi) at a remote coral reef in the Western Indian Ocean. Muscle samples of M. alfredi were c...
