Predator-Prey animats in a spatial model have been found to form battlefronts and other geometrical arrangements that allow the two species to coexist in a dynamic equilibrium. We explore the consequences of adding a third super-predatorial species and the hierarchical relationships and spatial patterns that emerge. We compare our micro scopic model with the predictions of a hierarchical species realisation of the predator-prey partial differential equation model based on the Lotka-Volterra equations. multi-species; predator-prey; animat; spatial emergence; Lotka-Volterra.
