When complex movement yields simple dispersal: behavioural heterogeneity, spatial spread and parasitism in groups of micro-wasps

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

Bridging studies of individual behaviour with population-level studies of dispersal is in this regard a major challenge, and a crucial one if the authors are to better predict the response of populations to changing environments and landscape characteristics. At large scales, the study of population spread and dispersal patterns inform the authors on the outcome of all individual decisions and on average quantities crucial for population dynamics and evolution, such as rates of spread or levels of gene flow. The authors propose a novel experimental approach to study population spread in a small . . .
