The Food of Fresh-Water Sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus and Pygosteus pungitius), with a Review of Methods Used in Studies of the Food of Fishes

Hynes, H. B. N.·1950·The Journal of Animal Ecology

Abstract

The work on which this paper is based began as a study of the food of fresh-water stickleback (section C). In the course of this work it became desirable to review the methods in common use for studying the food of fishes (section B). It also became possible to study the food of roach from the stream in which most of the sticklebacks were collected, and so to examine the food of an entire community of fishes (section D). The various sections, which are closely inter-related, have been placed in their logical order, but some forward references have been unavoidable.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
