The effect of prey density on the developmental time of larvae of an aquatic beetle: Tropisternus setiger (Insecta, Coleoptera: Hydrophilidae)
(Springer, 2007-12)
Predaceous larvae of the water scavenger beetle Tropisternus setiger (Germar) are common inhabitants of variable environments in which prey availability may vary widely. We conducted laboratory experiments to assess the ...

Response of pumas (Puma concolor) to migration of their primary prey in Patagonia
(Public Library of Science, 2017-12)
Large-scale ungulate migrations result in changes in prey availability for top predators and, as a consequence, can alter predator behavior. Migration may include entire populations of prey species, but often prey populations ...
Effect of prey density on intraguild interactions among foliar-and ground-foraging predators of aphids associated with alfalfa crops in Chile: A laboratory assessment
(2011)
Among the aphidophaga guild present in alfalfa [Medicago sativa L. (Fabaceae)], coccinellids forage on aphids most of the time on the foliage and carabids on the ground. The result of their combined effect can be synergistic, ...
Fine-scale body and head movements allow to determine prey capture events in the Magellanic Penguin (Spheniscus magellanicus)
(Springer, 2021-06)
The identification of when, how and where animals feed is essential to estimate the amount of energy they obtain and to study the processes associated with prey search and consumption. We combined the use of animal-borne ...
