✦ Synopsis

A predator᎐prey model with a stage structure for the predator which improves the assumption that each individual predator has the same ability to capture prey is proposed. It is assumed that immature individuals and mature individuals of the predator are divided by a fixed age and that immature predators do not have the ability to attack prey. We obtain conditions that determine the permanence of the populations and the extinction of the populations. Furthermore, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the local stability of the positive equilibrium of the model. By exploiting the monotonicity of one equation of the model, we obtain conditions for the global attractivity of the positive equilibrium, which allow for long delay as long as the predator birth rate is large or the death rate of immature predators is small. By constructing Liapunov functionals, we also obtain conditions under which the positive equilibrium is globally stable when the delay is small.

## Abstract In this paper, a ratio‐dependent predator–prey model with stage structure and harvesting is investigated. Mathematical analyses of the model equations with regard to boundedness of solutions, nature of equilibria, permanence and stability are performed. By constructing appropriate Lyapu

## Abstract The present paper deals with the problem of a classical predator–prey system with infection of prey population. A classical predator–prey system is split into three groups, namely susceptible prey, infected prey and predator. The relative removal rate of the susceptible prey due to infe

We formulate a variant of the "double Monod model" which takes explicit account of endogenous metabolism. Using parameter values appropriate to carbohydrate-limited substrate,bacterial prey, and protozoan predator, we study the stability of steady states under chemostat conditions. We conclude that
