Apparent competition drives community-wide parasitism rates and changes in host abundance across ecosystem boundaries
Species sharing a common enemy such as a parasitoid or predator can indirectly affect one another. Here, Frost et al. use quantitative food-web data from communities of caterpillar hosts to show experimentally that apparent competition is important in predicting food-web structure across habitats.
