| dc.description.abstract | The case for the importance of predators in controlling structure and function of lower trophic levels in ecosystems has gained considerable currency in recent years. Predators control biodiversity through direct and indirect interactions with other organisms in their ecosystem and influence community structure. Most animals are insects. Most predators are generalists, meaning that they feed on multiple trophic levels. It is difficult to determine the direct effect of these apex predators on their ecosystems. We used stable isotope analysis of praying mantids and their prey to provide a model for generalist apex predators. [From Notes] | en_US |
