This is particularly evident in the case of the populations of small coastal islets of the Balearic Islands, where the Balearic lizard, Podarcis lilfordi, is found. The study of trophic ecology carried out by means of traditional tools, such as morphological analysis of feces, has made it possible to detect numerous prey and nutritional elements. However, these methods are clearly insufficient, as some rare groups are not detected. It is also difficult to identify remains of marine subsidies or of foods contributed to these small islands by other predators, such as seabirds. The current study demonstrates the advantages of combining morphological diet analysis with the molecular study of individual feces samples obtained from the same populations. We obtained a greater diversity of prey groups using the combined methodologies, with each method identifying prey items that were not detected using the other method. Particularly, the study of diets at the molecular level identified plant species consumed by lizards that were, occasionally, not identified in morphological analyses. Conversely, the traditional morphological study of an equivalent number of fecal samples allowed for the identification of several prey groups that had not been detected in the molecular study. From this viewpoint, the advantages and disadvantages of each methodology are discussed. eng Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacional Balearic Islands diet analysis metabarcoding morphological identification trophic ecology Podarcis Lacertidae Diet of the Insular Lizard, Podarcis lilfordi (Günther, 1874): Complementary Morphological and Molecular Approaches info:eu-repo/semantics/article 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 URL https://gredos.usal.es/bitstream/10366/155702/1/DBAPEEQA_Alemany%20et%20al%202023_Diet%20of%20the%20insular%20lizard%20P%20lilfordi%20morphological%20and%20molecular.pdf File MD5 6c3a8b51bb6d6064f61fbc4d58f81c53 668382 application/pdf DBAPEEQA_Alemany et al 2023_Diet of the insular lizard P lilfordi morphological and molecular.pdf URL https://gredos.usal.es/bitstream/10366/155702/4/DBAPEEQA_Alemany%20et%20al%202023_Diet%20of%20the%20insular%20lizard%20P%20lilfordi%20morphological%20and%20molecular.pdf.txt File MD5 53f860297e6e6a0ee6288ea4511fdf27 87708 text/plain DBAPEEQA_Alemany et al 2023_Diet of the insular lizard P lilfordi morphological and molecular.pdf.txt
