Abstract
Using general classes of evolutionary models in which fitnesses are frequency independent and density dependent, we show that a phenotype is an ESS if and only if it is a NIS. This result is seen to hold in single species and multi species evolutionary models with and without structure. Frequency independent and density dependent evolutionary models are thus more likely to attain an ESS.
