Intraguild predation is thought to be ubiquitous in natural food webs. Yet, theory on intraguild
predation predicts the intraguild prey to persist only under limited conditions. This gap …

Climate change is altering the phenology of many species and the timing of their interactions
with other species, but the impacts of these phenological shifts on species interactions …

Biological pest control is becoming increasingly important for sustainable agriculture.
Although many species of natural enemies are already being used commercially, efficient …

Although biologists routinely label animals as predators and prey, the ecological role of
individuals is often far from clear. There are many examples of role reversals in predators …

The performance of four aphid predators, Hippodamia convergens Guerin-Meneville,
Coleomegilla maculata DeGeer, Chrysoperla carnea Stephens and Orius insidiosus Say …

Although phytoseiids are best known as predators of phytophagous mites and other small
arthropods, several species can also feed and reproduce on pollen. In laboratory assays, we …

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of a predator-prey model with role reversal and its
corresponding stochastic differential equation version. For the deterministic model, the …

Discrete time delay has been widely used in models of interacting populations to capture
various biological processes such as gestation, maturation, food digestion, disease …

The dynamics of a predator-prey model with stage-structure on predator and counter-
attacking behavior such that the prey can attack juvenile predator, is investigated in this …

In many terrestrial, marine, and freshwater predator-prey communities, young predators can
be vulnerable to attacks by large prey. Frequent prey counter-attacks may hinder the …
