Both δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N signatures (‰) of L. lucinalis (N = 13) are significantly more depleted compared to three symbiont-free bivalve species S. senilis (N = 17), P. isocardia (N = 10) and D. circularis (N = 5) found on the intertidal flats of Banc d'Arguin, Mauritania. See Supplementary Table 4 for parameter estimates of the models, with carbon and nitrogen isotope signature (‰) modelled as a function of species. All samples were collected at Banc d'Arguin, Mauritania, unless otherwise specified.
