Effects of kinship or familiarity? Small thrips larvae experience lower predation risk only in groups of mixed-size siblings
In many species of insects, larvae are distributed in an aggregated fashion. As they may differ in size and size matters to predation risk, small larvae may be less likely to fall prey to predators when near large and therefore better-defended larvae. We hypothesize that the small larvae may profit...
