An example of niche partitioning between Dikerogammarus villosus and other invasive and native gammarids: a field study
The invasive gammarid Dikerogammarus villosus is known to be a strong predator preying voraciously on a wide array of prey organisms including other gammarids. Predation by D. villosus on other gammarids is regarded as a main reason which led to the elimination of native and invasive gammarids in ma...
