Greater than the sum of your parts: Nonlethal stable isotope sampling methods in spiders

Abstract As top consumers and generalist predators, spiders are ideal organisms to study food webs and complex ecological functions using stable isotopes. Most researchers use whole‐body samples to analyze stable isotope ratios in spiders. Spiders can regrow lost legs and produce multiple molts duri...
