Communal or competitive? Stable isotope analysis provides evidence of resource partitioning within a communal shark nursery (2011, background): “…within single species nursery areas is mounting, few studies have investigated resource partitioning among cooccurring shark species (Salini et al. 1992, Platell et al. 1998, Bethea et al. 2004, White et al. 2004), with only Bethea et al. (2004) focusing specifically on juveniles in these areas.”
Dietary Niche Overlap in a Nearshore Elasmobranch Mesopredator Community (2011, unknown): “Teleosts make up ~70% of the diet of C. cautus by number and volume in Shark Bay (White et al. 2004) and ~30% of the IRI of C. punctatum in other locations (Stead & Bennett 2008), although the mixing models also suggest that these species are less reliant than the batoids examined on the seagrass…”
Apparent Resource Partitioning and Trophic Structure of Large-Bodied Marine Predators in a Relatively Pristine Seagrass Ecosystem (2013, background): “Smaller sharks and dolphins in the study area are largely piscivorous (e.g. Cortés 1999, Heithaus & Dill 2002, White et al. 2004).”
Stable isotope profiles of large marine predators: Viable indicators of trophic position, diet, and movement in sharks? (2011, background): “Accepting the limited number of prey items–types per individual shark stomach, dietary data for groups of individual animals (approximately 10 per group) were randomly pooled within each size class, herein referred to as dietary samples (White et al. 2004).”
Distribution and diet of four species of carcharhinid shark in the Hawaiian Islands: evidence for resource partitioning and competitive exclusion (2006, background): “The few studies that have attempted to investigate competition and resource partitioning between elasmobranchs have examined dietary and habitat overlap among sympatric species within small spatial scales (e.g. Cartamil et al. 2003, Bethea et al. 2004, White et al. 2004).”
Nursery habitat use and foraging ecology of the brown stingray Dasyatis lata determined from stomach contents, bulk and amino acid stable isotopes (2011, unknown): “Similar mechanisms were suggested to ex - plain low dietary overlap between a rhinobatid ray and sharks in an Australian bay (White et al. 2004).”
Behavioural response of sicklefin lemon sharks Negaprion acutidens to underwater feeding for ecotourism purposes (2010, background): “Despite its commercial value (Compagno 1984), only a few studies have been conducted in the Indian Ocean (Stevens 1984) and in Western Australia (White et al. 2004) besides a recent global genetic study (Schultz et al. 2008).”
Habitat partitioning among four elasmobranch species in nearshore, shallow waters of a subtropical embayment in Western Australia (2004, background): “seine netting, spearing and rod and line angling, demonstrated that this species was abundant in unvegetated regions ( White et al. 2004 ).”
