Abstract. A discrete model of nonautonomous competitive Lotka-Volterra type with infinite delay for d species is considered. It is shown that if coefficients satisfy some certain inequalities, then any solution with positive components at some point will have all of its last d-1 components tending to zero, while the first one will approach to a positive solution of a logistic equation.
