Resource Partitioning in a Mediterranean Demersal Fish Community

摘要: Niche breadths and community matrices were examined for two guilds (benthic epibenthic) on the western Meditemanean slope. There are a larger number of special~st species in benthic than epibenthic guild. Selachians have broader niches other species. Most pairs with significant overlaps present high values only few size groups. some them also showing seasonal or die1 patterns resource partitioning. Analysis covariance each niche dimension shows that more closely packed respect to depth distribution food. Covariance guild indicate competition is likely
