Prey choice by Nesticodes rumpes (Araneae, Theridiidae) on Musca domestica (Diptera, Muscidae) and Dermestes ater (Coleoptera, Dermestidae)
(Amer Arachnological Soc, 2006-01-01)
Nesticodes rufipes is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions, being strongly associated with humans. However, few behavioral and ecological studies have investigated interspecific interactions between these ...

Prey choice by facultative predator larvae of Chrysomya albiceps (Diptera: Calliphoridae)
(Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Ministério da Saúde, 2001-08-01)
In this study we investigated predation rates on third instar larvae of Chrysomya putoria and C. megacephala by third instar larvae of C. albiceps in a two-choice situation. The highest predation rate occurred on C. putoria ...

Stomach fullness modulates prey size choice in the frillfin goby, Bathygobius soporator
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2012-10-01)
Behaviours related to foraging and feeding in predator-prey systems are fundamental to our understanding of food webs. From the perspective of a predator, the selection of prey size depends upon a number of factors including ...

Consuming Costly Prey: Optimal Foraging and the Role of Compensatory Growth
(2021-03-18)
Some prey are exceptionally difficult to digest, and yet even non-specialized animals may consume them—why? Durophagy, the consumption of hard-shelled prey, is thought to require special adaptations for crushing or digesting ...

Anurans as prey: an exploratory analysis and size relationships between predators and their prey
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007-02-01)
The vertebrate predators of post-metamorphic anurans were quantified and the predator-prey relationship was investigated by analysing the relative size of invertebrate predators and anurans. More than 100 vertebrate predators ...
