Tracking niche variation over millennial timescales in sympatric killer whale lineages

Tracking niche variation over millennial timescales in sympatric killer whale lineages

Niche variation owing to individual differences in ecology has been hypothesized to be an early stage of sympatric speciation. Yet to date, no study has tracked niche width over more than a few generations. In this study, we show the presence of isotopic niche variation over millennial timescales an...
