Hilbert's Sixteenth Problem concerns the number and relative position of limit cycles in a planar polynomial system of differential equations. We show, using multiple Hopf bifurcation from multiple fine foci, that limit cycle configurations of types (3, 3, -2, -2) and (2, 2, 1, 1, -1) occur in symme

✦ Synopsis
In E.M. James and N.G. Lloyd's paper A Cubic System with Eight Small-Amplitude Limit Cycles [l], a set of conditions is given that ensures the origin to be a fine focus of order eight and eight limit cycles to bifurcate from the origin by perturbing parameters. We find that one of the conditions, as = e*a7, where 666/97 < (T* < 103/15, can be weakened as as = (~*a7 or as = OraT, where 283/125 < (21 < 284/125.
In [l], deriving above conditions is reduced to finding the real solutions of a system of some algebraic equations and inequalities. When verifying these conditions by solving this system in a different ordering, we find another real solution to the system, which is leading to above improvement of the conditions.

## Abstract A cubic differential system is proposed, which can be considered a generalization of the predator–prey models, studied recently by many authors. The properties of the equilibrium points, the existence of a uniqueness limit cycle, and the conditions for three limit cycles are investigate
