Abstract
A model for intraspecific competition that incorporates the effects of inter- and intra-stage survival rates, spatial distribution, and variation in growth is developed using basic probability theory. Simulation results for cannibalism in Heliothis zea (Boddie) are presented and intraspecific competition is shown to have effects on population cyclicity and on mortality.Keywords
