Mechanisms of prey size selecon in a suspension feeding copepod, Temora longicornis
(Inter-research, 2014-12-15)
We examined size-dependent prey detection and prey capture in free-swimming Temora longicornis using video observations, particle image velocimetry (PIV), and bottle incubations with phytoplankton prey sizes within the ...
Predator-prey body size relationship in temporary wetlands: Effect of predatory insects on prey size spectra and survival
(EDP Sciences, 2016-03)
The effect of predators on prey size structure in aquatic communities has been well studied in lentic permanent habits, but less attention has been placed on temporary environments. The biota of seasonal Andean wetlands ...
Perceiving the algae: How feeding-current feeding copepods detect their nonmotile prey
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 2015-03)
Feeding-current feeding copepods detect and capture prey individually, but the mechanism by which nonmotile prey is detected has been unclear. Early reports that copepods detect phytoplankton prey at distances of one body ...
Chemical recognition in a snake-lizard predator-prey system
(Springer, 2015)
In a predator-prey interaction, the fitnesses of the predator and the prey depend on their abilities to recognize each other, a process that may involve different sensory modalities. Squamate reptiles are highly dependent ...
Corrigendum to ‘‘Multiple stability and uniqueness of the limit cycle in a Gause-type predator–prey model considering the Allee effect on prey’’
(2013)
This work deals with some typographical mistakes into the above-referenced paper.
Although they do not affect the main results, it is necessary to make due corrections.
We affirm that the results and conclusions obtained ...
The effectiveness of post-contact defenses in a prey with no pre-contact detection
(Urban und Fischer VerlagJena, 2013-06)
Most empirical and theoretical papers on prey–predator interactions are for animals with long-range detection, animals that can detect and react to predators long before these touch the prey. Heavy-bodied and chemically ...
The peculiar case of an insectivorous iguanid lizard that detects chemical cues from prey
(2007)
Ecological and phylogenetic factors determine which sensory modalities organisms use in their day-to-day activities. Among lizards, empirical studies indicate a tight association between foraging strategies and the ability ...
