Survival, development, and reproductive data for <em>Hippodamia convergens</em> that provide the basis for cannibalism simulations

We used life tables to model rates of population growth when egg cannibalism by specific life stages increases developmental rate and/or fecundity, using aphidophagous coccinellids as a model system. The uploaded files contain the raw data used to delimit parameters of the model, data obtained from previously published observations on Hippodamia convergens (RawData). The oviposition period and daily fecundity followed Weibull and negative binomial distributions (see uploaded CSV files), respectively. The uploaded files do not contain the data generated by life table model simulations, as these can be obtained by anyone choosing to run the simulations. , The probability that a female survives and oviposits on a given day was defined as a Weibull function: P(t)= exp(- t/b)c&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Eq. 1 where t is female age at oviposition, p denotes probability, b and c are parameters, and exp is the base of natural logarithms. b and c were estimated to be 24.9 and 1.77, respectively (F1,53 = ..., # Survival, development, and reproductive data for *Hippodamia convergens* that provide the basis for cannibalism simulations Dataset DOI: [10.5061/dryad.np5hqc06x](10.5061/dryad.np5hqc06x) ## Description of the data and file structure **File 1: \"RawData.csv\"** Rows: 1. First row is reference, 2.    second and third row are heading of columns (numbers of days), 3.     Data of daily reproduction of 21 females extracted from Michaud & Qureshi (2006) are presented in 21 rows (rows 4 to 24). 4.    Rows 26-31 represents sum, average, Sd, variance (var), number of females alive at each age, and survival rate (lx value of life table), below the data the fecundity curve of Michaud and Qureshi is presented.
