Coprophagy in a cave-adapted salamander; the importance of bat guano examined through nutritional and stable isotope analyses

During a two year population ecology study in a cave environment, 15 Eurycea (=Typhlotriton) spelaea were observed ingesting bat guano. Furthermore, E. spelaea capture numbers increased significantly during the time that grey bats (Myotis grisescens) deposited fresh guano. We investigated the hypoth...
