Figure 2

Biplot of δ13C and δ15N values (mean ± SD) for TGs 2–5 () and TDF-corrected δ13C and δ15N values (mean ± SD) for nine predator species (), numerically labeled as shown.

Sample size for each species shown in parentheses. Predators are adjusted for TDFs for δ15N and δ13C according to PB TDFs from Madigan (submitted) (PM, BON, ALB, YT, PB, YFT: Δ15N = 1.85, Δ13C = 1.83‰) or Hussey et al. 2010 (MAKO, BLSK: Δ15N = 4.0, Δ13C = 0.9‰). Grey outline encloses predator and prey isospace in the southern CCLME. Inset shows relative sizes (CFL ± SD) for nine species shown.
