Abstract
It is shown that locally asymptotically stable equilibria of planar cooperative or competitive maps have basin of attraction B with relatively simple geometry: The boundary of each component of B consists of the union of two unordered curves, and the components of B are not comparable as sets. The boundary curves are Lipschitz if the map is of class C1. Further, if a periodic point is in @B, then @B is tangential to the line through the point with direction given by the eigenvector associated with the smaller characteristic value of the map at the point. Examples are given.
