Allometric constraints on carabid diets: interspecific differences in carabid-to-seed mass ratios impact seed choice
Seed choice in seed-feeding omnivorous carabid beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) is influenced by numerous ecological factors, including the chemical and physical properties of seed species. Previous work has shown that seed chemistry can drive seed selection decisions by carabids only when the size a...
