Abstract: Although food consumption rate has been identified as an important biological variable informing growth rates and population dynamics in fisheries management, equivalent measures receive little attention for native stream fishes. This research investigates whether spatial… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Intraguild predation (IGP) is a common phenomenon among the predacious coccinellids which involves a combination of predation and competition. The aphidophagous predators, Coccinella septempunctata L. and Hippodamia variegata (G.) comprise major part of coccinellid… read more here.
