The authors consider a scalar reaction-diffusion equation with a spatially inhomogeneous delay (in the form of a step function). The stability of the uniform steady state is analysed, and these results are extended by a large number of numerical simulations, which confirm the possibility of qualitatively different types of behaviour in different parts of the spatial domain. It is inter alia shown that even a small area of strong delay may cause instability in a population which otherwise could sustain a steady state, and a stable uniform population in a given region can be destabilised by diffusion into an adjacent area with stronger delay.
