A Predator-Prey Model with an Application to Lake Victoria Fisheries [PDF]

open access: yes
Greater complexity in renewable resource models is achieved by acknowledging that species interact through a predator-prey relationship in which both species are harvested.

Dynamics and pattern formation in diffusive predator-prey models with predator-axis

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2020
We consider a three-species predator-prey system in which the predator has a stage structure and the prey moves to avoid the mature predator, which is called the predator-taxis.

The musculature and skeleton of the pelvic fin of the crocodile shark, Pseudocarcharias kamoharai (Matsubara, 1936) (Elasmobranchii: Lamniformes): Morphology and sexual dimorphism

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This work brings new information on the sexual characteristics of the crocodile shark (Pseudocarcharias kamoharai) exploring the pelvic fin musculature, as well as the siphon sac and the musculature and skeleton of the clasper. Our paper is the first to point out clearly the sexual dimorphism related exclusively to the pelvic fin musculature in males ...

PREDATOR-PREY SYSTEMS IN PEST MANAGEMENT [PDF]

open access: yes
The use of chemical pesticides frequently causes minor pests to become serious problems by disturbing the natural controls that keep them in check. As a result, it is possible to suffer heavier crop losses after pesticides are introduced than before ...

Quantitative muscle architecture in large carnivorous marsupials (Marsupialia: Dasyuridae) and links to substrate use and prey processing

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Dasyurid species Sarcophilus harrisii, Dasyurus maculatus, and Dasyurus viverrinus, occupying diverse ecological niches and forming a guild structure in Tasmania, provide a basis for examining the roles of various forelimb muscle groups in prey capture and locomotion.

The architecture of predator-prey and the relationship between complexity and stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Theoretical studies predict that the stability of an ecosystem is negatively correlated with its complexity, measured by the number of interacting species. On the other hand, empirical evidence indicates that food webs are highly interconnected.

Drivers of tail evolution in squamates and their implications for the fossorial origin of snakes

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The axial skeleton serves as the primary structural support in all vertebrates and is subdivided into five distinct regions: cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and caudal. Relaxation of constraints acting on the terminal end of the axial skeleton has led to remarkable variation in caudal vertebrae number across Squamata.

Gregarious Behaviour of Evasive Prey [PDF]

open access: yes
Gregarious behavior of potential prey was explained by Hamilton (1971) on the basis of risk-sharing: The probability of being picked up by a predator is small when one makes part of a large aggregate of prey.

Optimal Harvest of a Stochastic Predator-Prey Model

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2011
We firstly show the permanence of hybrid prey-predator system. Then, when both white and color noises are taken into account, we examine the asymptotic properties of stochastic prey-predator model with Markovian switching.
