The periodic Ricker equation has been studied by several authors, including the present one. However, the periodic model derived from the original one has not been studied in detail. We show that the model often taken as a periodic Ricker model is a particular case of the original one and compare their dynamics. In particular, we characterize the parameter region where the model has a periodic point of period two, which is globally stable. We also compute the parameter regions where complex behavior is exhibited.
