Predator-prey interactions: egg-eating predators

Mathematical Biosciences, 1982
Abstract This manuscript is intended to provide further insight into the dynamics of predator-prey interactions in which the predator population feeds on the eggs of the prey population. Reasons are provided for the results shown in a previous article.

Diseased Social Predators

Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2017
Social predators benefit from cooperation in the form of increased hunting success, but may be at higher risk of disease infection due to living in groups. Here, we use mathematical modeling to investigate the impact of disease transmission on the population dynamics benefits provided by group hunting.

Intraguild predation reduces redundancy of predator species in multiple predator assemblage

Journal of Animal Ecology, 2006
Summary Interference between predator species frequently decreases predation rates, lowering the risk of predation for shared prey. However, such interference can also occur between conspecific predators. Therefore, to understand the importance of predator biodiversity and the degree that predator species can be considered functionally interchangeable,

Predation

2023
Key Concepts CONCEPT 12.1 Most carnivores have broad diets, whereas a majority of herbivores have relatively narrow diets. CONCEPT 12.2 Predation results in a wide range of capture and avoidance mechanisms.

Predator-prey relationships: egg-eating predators

Mathematical Biosciences, 1983
Im Anschluß an frühere Untersuchungen verschiedener Autoren wird ein Modell für ein Räuber-Beute-System entwickelt, in dem die Räuber die Eier (oder Jungen) der Beutepopulation fressen. Dabei wird die Beutepopulation als altersstrukturiert und zeitabängig mit alters- und zeitabhängiger Form der Fruchtbarkeitsrate vorausgesetzt, während die ...

Predator: non-predator ratios in beetle assemblages

Oecologia, 1992
In common with samples from less taxonomically constrained studies, significant correlations exist between the numbers of predatory and non-predatory species in assemblages of terrestrial beetles. Under logarithmic transformation the relationship can be described reasonably well by a straight line.

Predators and predation

1984
The first task faced by the writer of any book is the setting of limits around the material to be covered. This is primarily an exercise in definition and, as with any such exercise, is an invitation to dispute. Nearly every textbook dealing with ecology offers a unique definition of predation.

Predation and Predator Management *

2019
Predation has shaped many facets of the ecology of plovers, including their life history traits, behaviors, and demography. Moreover, conservation often emphasizes managing predators to increase population size. I reviewed literature addressing impacts of predation on survivorship and reproductive success of plovers, as well as four management ...
