Ontogenetic niche shifts, the phenomenon whereby animals change their resource use with
growth, were probably widespread in dinosaurs, but most studies of duck-billed dinosaur …

The role of humans in shaping local ecosystems is an increasing focus of archaeological
research, yet researchers often lack an appropriate means of measuring past anthropogenic …

The ecological structure of the mammoth steppe fauna remains quite unclear. Stable isotope
biogeochemistry of fossil collagen can help determining the discrimination in food resources …

Stable isotopes and faunal bones. Comments on Milner et al. (2004) Page 1 Debate Stable
isotopes and faunal bones. Comments on Milner et al. (2004) R. Barberena ∗1 & LA Borrero ∗2 …

Palaeodietary studies typically focus on the analysis of bone collagen due to the limited
availability of plant remains. Isotopic analysis of plant remains, however, allow for a more …

The transition from hunting-gathering to agriculture stands as one of the most important
dietary revolutions in human history. Yet, due to a scarcity of well-preserved human remains …

The present contribution provides a review of the feeding paleoecology studies based on
carbon isotopic data available for 13 extinct megamammals that existed in South America …

For many extinct species, direct evidence of diet (eg coprolites, gizzard/intestinal contents) is
not available, and indirect dietary evidence (eg stable isotopes) must be relied upon. The …

Whatever the cause, it is extraordinary that dozens of genera of large mammals became
extinct during the late Quaternary throughout the Western Hemisphere, including 90% of the …

Aim We sought to quantify geographical variation in the stable isotope values of mouse
lemurs (Microcebus) and to determine whether this variation reflects trophic differences …
