Citations in the corpus

• Intraspecific dietary variation in the short-beaked common dolphin Delphinus delphis in the Bay of Biscay: importance of fat fish (2008, background): “This allowed us to determine a fresh fraction that would better represent the composition of the ingested prey than a total diet composition derived from all prey items (Pusineri et al. 2007).”
• Prey selection by the common dolphin: Fulfilling high energy requirements with high quality food (2010, methodology): “Recently and for the first time in a fully oceanic 80 area, the diet of common dolphins off the Bay of Biscay was shown to be largely constituted 81 of myctophids (Pusineri et al., 2007).”
• Proximate composition and energy content of forage species from the Bay of Biscay: high- or low-quality food? (2010, background): “As far as possible, the size range was selected to match published prey sizes for top predators in the Bay of Biscay (Spitz et al., 2006; Pusineri et al., 2007; Meynier et al., 2008).”
