Dietary specialization is conditionally associated with increased ant predation risk in a temperate forest caterpillar community
The enemy‐free space hypothesis (EFSH) contends that generalist predators select for dietary specialization in insect herbivores. At a community level, the EFSH predicts that dietary specialization reduces predation risk, and this pattern has been found in several studies addressing the impact of in...
