Detection of Inter- and Intra-Specific Competition in the Insect Communities of British Trees: A Practical Exercise in Community Ecology.
Putman, R. J.
Journal of Biological Education, v18 n4 p313-15 Win 1984
Describes an activity (suitable for high school or college) in which the effects of competition in the structuring of ecological communities are examined. The exercise also offers an introduction into species diversity; more advanced classes may be encouraged to seek reasons for differences in insect diversity on different trees. (Author/JN)
