ResumoThe ideal free distribution, a theoretical model of the distribution of competitors between habitat patches, has recently undergone a number of modifications and extensions. These fall into two main categories: those that assume that equilibrium is attained, and those that establish whether it is attained. The modifications suggest ways in which behavioural properties of individuals might affect the distribution of competitors, and clear a path for further empirical tests.
