Abstract
⺠Crepidula adunca may avoid shared doom by using Calliostoma ligatum as a host. ⺠Field trials: predators consumed more Margarites pupillus than Calliostoma ligatum. ⺠Laboratory trials: common predators preferred M. pupillus to Calliostoma ligatum. ⺠Calliostoma ligatum is faster than M. pupillus when stimulated by Leptasterias hexactis. ⺠Body size affected speed in Calliostoma ligatum but not in M. pupillus.
