Aclassofstage-structured predator-preymodelwithtimedelayanddelay-dependent parameters is considered. Its linear stability is investigated and Hopf bifurcation is demonstrated. Using normal form theory and center manifold theory, some explicit formulae for determining the stability and the direction of the Hopf bifurcation periodic solutions bifurcating from Hopf bifurcations are obtained. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to verify the analytical results. 1.Introduction Over the past decade, a great many predator-prey models have been developed to describe the interaction between predator and prey. Their dynamical phenomena have beenextensivelystudiedbecauseofthewideapplicationinthe?eldofbiomathematics.In particular, the appearance of a cycle bifurcating from the equilibrium of an ordinary or a delayedpredator-preymodelwithasingleparameter,whichisknownasaHopfbifurcation, hasattractedmuchattentionduetoitstheoreticalandpracticalsigni?cance1–5.Butmost of the research literature on these models are only connected with parameters which are independentoftimedelay;thus,thecorrespondingcharacteristicequationsareeasytodeal with.Whileinmostapplicationsofdelaydi?erentialequationsinpopulationdynamics,the needofinc
