Effects of Alternative Prey Density on Cannibalism in Adult Female <i>Neoseiulus californicus</i>. [PDF]
Using two strains of N. californicus—TU (reared long‐term on T. urticae) and OB (reared long‐term on O. bakeri)—this study demonstrated that although alternative prey density had no significant effect on cannibalism, both rearing strain and conspecific life stage significantly influenced cannibalistic behavior, with a significant interaction between ...
