Both equations represent parabolas (Fig. 4). A real positive equilibrium point exists if: '("-2 +/C3) C4 (er, + fc^) + k. > Cf,e It can be seen that when = = 0, conditions for the existence of a real posi- tive equilibrium point are more stringent; however, local stability about that point occurs if it exists. When k^,. k^ > 0, the stability criteria are similar to those of the density-independent case except that an extra variable uhich is ah\a\s positive is added to the left hand side of the equation, and the criterion: .v + k^HyP + Cj/^i > ffl.,^ must be met (.v is a variable which is always positive, and composed of terms of the original equations). Thus, in cases where decrease in indisiduals.
