Filial cannibalism of Nabis pseudoferus is not evolutionarily optimal foraging strategy

Abstract Using a recursion model with real parameters of Nabis pseudoferus, we show that its filial cannibalism is an optimal foraging strategy for life reproductive success, but it is not an evolutionarily optimal foraging strategy, since it cannot maximize the descendant’s number at the end of the...
