Trophic generalists vs. trophic specialists: implications for food web dynamics in post-fire streams
The trophic ecology of 11 benthic macroinvertebrate taxa found in Cache Creek, Yellowstone National Park (YNP) was studied to determine if burned organic matter is an important resource and how resource utilization patterns may be altered in post-…
