Community-wide responses to predation risk: Effects of predator hunting mode on herbivores, pollinators, and parasitoids
(2018-01-01)
1. Flower visitation by herbivores and pollinators often occurs simultaneously, but their potential contrasting responses to predation risk are rarely investigated in concert. Predator avoidance behaviour is common in ...
Lack of response of an open-habitat ungulate to the presence of predator urine
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2008)
The effect of refuge on Dermestes ater (Coleoptera : Dermestidae) predation on Musca domestica (Diptera : Muscidae): Refuge for prey or the predator?
(Springer, 2006-11-01)
It is believed that habitat heterogeneity can change the extent of predator-prey interactions. Therefore, in this study we examined the effect of habitat heterogeneity (characterized here as an addition of refuge) on D. ...

Black sea urchins evaluate predation risk using chemical signals from a predator and injured con- and heterospecific prey
(Inter-research, 2011-01-01)
The traits related to foraging and eating are crucial to our understanding of food webs. The use of signals to detect predators has strong relevance for prey survival. The black sea urchin Echinometra lucunter cohabits ...

Combined effects of predator odor and alarm substance on behavioral and physiological responses of the pearl cichlid
(2019-07-01)
Several fish species trigger defensive behavioral responses when exposed to chemical cues that indicate predation risk. In these situations, physiological adjustments are also necessary to prepare the organism for a defensive ...
Seasonal, spatial and diel partitioning of Acyrthosiphon pisum (Hemiptera: Aphididae) predators and predation in alfalfa fields
(Elsevier, 2014)
Predators are important natural enemies, often responsible for preventing pest population outbreaks of in
many crops. Complementarity in resource use involves spatial or temporal segregation of predators,
which can result ...
Dynamics of handling time and functional response by larvae of Chrysomya albiceps (Dipt., Calliphoridae) on different prey species
(2004-07-01)
One way to understand the behavioural patterns exhibited by a predator in response to prey density is to evaluate its functional response. Such evaluation yields information about basic mechanisms of prey-predator dynamics, ...
