Citations in the corpus

• Predator-prey naïveté, antipredator behavior, and the ecology of predator invasions (2010, background): “Although using taxonomic similarity is easily assessed, it may not always correlate with the degree of mechanistic or functional similarity existing between non-native-native predator pairs (Chalcraft and Resetarits 2003).”
• Habitat manipulation to mitigate the impacts of invasive arthropod pests (2010, background): “Several studies have shown that species identity is an important factor in prey suppression (Schmitz and Suttle 2001; Chalcraft and Resetarits 2003; Straub and Snyder 2006).”
• Human Involvement in Food Webs (2010, background): “Some apparently reasonable aggregations comprise species that are not functionally homogeneous (36).”
• Amphibian Contributions to Ecosystem Services (2014, background): “Salamanders are euryphagic predators of invertebrates (Petranka 1998; Casper 2005; Homyack et al. 2010) and forest-floor food webs are extremely complex with potential functional redundancy (Heneghan and Bolger 1998; Chalcraft and Resetarits 2003; Bengtsson and Berg 2005; Wardle et al. 2005).”
• LARVAL PERFORMANCE AND OVIPOSITION SITE PREFERENCE ALONG A PREDATION GRADIENT (2004, background): “Umbra pygmaea is a small (4–11.5 cm), locally abundant fish native to the region, and is known to prey upon larval anurans (Chalcraft and Resetarits 2003).”
• A synthesis of subdisciplines: predator–prey interactions, and biodiversity and ecosystem functioning (2004, background): “While BEF has not developed in strict isolation from PPI (Wilby & Thomas 2002; Cardinale et al. 2003; Chalcraft & Resetarits 2003), the two research areas clearly have distinct histories and different emphases (Duffy 2002).”
