Description Usage Format Source
Networks often contain 'forbidden links', where interactions are not possible
between two taxa due to factors such as large differences in body size,
spatio-temporal mismatches or specialised flower morphology in flower visitation
networks. Broadstone.fl
summarises the forbidden links in the
Broadstone
food web, estimated from the interactions observed
from a complete year's sampling (Table 3 in Woodward et al. 2005). This
table is illustrative, and should not be considered a definitive list.

A data frame with 20 columns and seven rows, one row for each of the
seven predator taxa. The first column (Predator
) lists the seven taxa,
whilst the remaining 19 columns are the invertebrate taxa in the food web:
each element indicates whether the predator can consume that taxon (1) or
whether the link is 'forbidden' (0).
