Antipredator responses of three species within the species complex to two invertebrate predators.

Prey communities in natural environments face a diverse array of predators with distinct hunting techniques. However, most studies have focused only on the interactions between a single prey species and one or more predators and typically only one of many induced defense traits, which limits our understanding of the broader effects of predators on prey communities. In this study, we conducted a common garden experiment using five clones each of three species (, , and ) from the species complex to investigate the plasticity of predator-induced defenses in response to two predators in a community ecology setting.
