| Resumo: |
Stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios have been determined on 41 strains of <i>Artemia</i> sp. from different geographic regions around the world. The delta <sup>13</sup>C and delta <sup>15</sup>N values ranged between -13.7 to -25.0 per mil and -0.7 to 21.2 per mil respectively. <i>Artemia</i> delta <sup>13</sup>C values from coastal environments are consistent with a marine origin for the food source. <i>Artemia</i> from inland salt lakes have a range of carbon isotope values suggesting C<sub>3</sub>, C<sub>4</sub> and CAM based organic matter could form the base of the <i>Artemia</i> food chain. These data indicate that <i>Artemia</i> having a wide range of carbon and nitrogen isotope values are available for trophodynamic research studies that quantify the effect of respired CO<sub>2</sub> on tissue and CaCO<sub>3</sub> shell <sup>13</sup>C/<sup>12</sup>C ratios. Such stable isotope variation also suggests that stable isotope fingerprinting remains a viable technique for identifying specific <i>Artemia</i> collection sites.
