Abstract:
Observations on cannibalism in outdoor insectaries are presented. The behavioural interactions are described. Cannibalism (in both sexes) occurred only during periods of cold weather. It is hypothesised that intraspecific predation is a switch in food selection due to bad weather conditions.
