Stronger Antipredatory Vigilance of Prey to Olfactory Cues From Injured Vulnerable Conspecifics
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.Eggs of spider mites are more vulnerable to predators. Reproductive females of spider mites are more vigilant to olfactory cues from injured eggs compared to that from injured adults and deutonymphs. ABSTRACT Predation risk is a key evolutionary force shaping prey behaviors and life‐history strategies across taxa. Predators often target vulnerable life
