A simple technique to assess resource use in dung beetle breeding studies

Current methods for identifying resource preferences in dung beetles are based on above‐ground trials. Although useful, these methods do not directly investigate resource provisioning of offspring below ground, missing an important part of dung beetle ecology. We tested the potential for UV‐fluoresc...
