• Isotopic niches and trophic levels of myctophid fishes and their predators in the Southern Ocean (2010, background): “Such a classification is not supported by myctophids from Kerguelen since most species are active migrants (Duhamel et al. 2000, 2005), which, depending on species, store either triacylglycerols or wax esters (Phleger et al. 1999; Lea et al. 2002b).”

• Antarctic icefishes (Channichthyidae): a unique family of fishes. A review, Part I (2005, background): “Antarctic fur seals include mackerel icefish as a major component of their diet in certain years (Green and Burton 1989, 1993), such as in 1998 (Lea et al. 2002).”
• Individual dietary specialization and dive behaviour in the California sea otter: Using archival time–depth data to detect alternative foraging strategies (2007, background): “Such dietary data can be acquired using a variety of techniques including stomach flushing (Radl and Culik, 1999; Tremblay and Cherel, 2003), colon flushing (Staniland et al., 2004), or fatty-acid analysis (Lea et al., 2002a; Iverson et al., 2004).”
