Table 2 in ºop of the food chains: an ecological network of the marine Paja Formation biota from the Early Cretaceous of Colombia reveals the highest trophic levels ever estimated

Table 2. Comparisons of trophic level values across analogous taxa from the marine food*webs. Trophic levels are from the predator averaged trophic level (PATL) values. Mean values are calculated when multiple taxa are from the same network
