Intraspecific competition

Definition (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraspecific_competition)

Intraspecific competition occurs when members of the same species compete for the same resources in an ecosystem. The organism that obtains less resources, will usually perform less well than if it lives alone, Although in this situation it may actually be more useful to think in terms of resource availability than competition.
