Abstract:
Male mating success is often determined by body size or secondary sexual characters because of female mate choice or competition for females. In addition to intraspecific interactions, interspecific interactions may interfere with intraspecific selection. In this study, we investigated sexual selection on size and sexual characters of male banded demoiselle ( Calopteryx splendens (Harris, 1780)) in wild populations sympatric with the beautiful demoiselle ( Calopteryx virgo (L., 1758)). As secondary sexual characters, male C. splendens have pigmented wing spots whose size appears to be under po

Abstract:
Abstract Sexual size dimorphism is biased toward males in most mammalian species. The most common explanation is precopulatory intramale sexual selection. Large males win fights and mate more frequently. In artiodactyls, previous tests of this hypothesis consisted of interspecific correlations of sexual dimorphism with group size as a surrogate for the intensity of sexual selection (Is). However, group size is not a proper measure of sexual selection for several reasons as is largely recognized in other mammalian taxa. I conducted an interspecific test on the role of sexual selection in the ev

Abstract:
Sexual breeding at the tetraploid level is a promising strategy for rootstock breeding in citrus. Due to the interspecific origin of most of the conventional diploid citrus rootstocks that produced the tetraploid germplasm, the optimization of this strategy requires better knowledge of the meiotic behavior of the tetraploid parents. This work used Genotyping By Sequencing (GBS) data from 103 tetraploid hybrids to study the meiotic behavior and generate a high-density recombination landscape for their tetraploid intergenic Swingle citrumelo and interspecific Volkamer lemon progenitors.

AbstractNon-conceptive sexual behavior (NCSB) is phylogenetically widespread, having been documented in 35 of the 87 extant cetacean species, but function and form of NCSB have not been studied in comparative manner. Many cetacean species engage in NCSB across a wide variety of settings and contexts (e.g., play, sexual, affiliative). NCSB includes both social and non-social sexual behaviors, such as non-social masturbation on the environment or social same-sex thrusting toward a conspecific, but importantly, none of the behavior described as NCSB affords reproduction.

Abstract:
AbstractKnowledge of cetacean life history, morphology, and social behavior provides clues to the niche-specific adaptations that have evolved to maximize reproductive fitness. An essential component of a species’ life history is mating, particularly the sex-specific mating strategies that have evolved. Mating strategies vary within and among species reflecting phylogenetic constraints and the interplay of selective forces molding each species’ adaptations. The suite of cetacean mating strategies that have evolved ultimately determines how a species’ mating system operates. Thus, mating system

Abstract:
The chapters in this volume share the theme that our understanding of pattern, process, and consequence in the study of behavioral evolution can be advanced by examining differences among conspecific populations. Traditionally, biologists have sought such understanding by comparing different species. Although differences among species are usually greater than differences among conspecific populations, so many factors can vary interspecifically that determining selection pressures driving behavioral divergence may be difficult.

Abstract:
Adaptive radiation is the simultaneous diversification of a lineage into numerous sublineages and specializations (Simpson, 1953a). All of the species of a radiation constitute a monophyletic group, and they often share some innovative trait or set of traits (sometimes called a key innovation—Liem, 1973) that is thought to have allowed the lineage to undergo a major transition, moving it into a previously unoccupied zone of opportunity exploited in different ways by different branches A radiation is a proliferation of variations on a phenotypic theme, accompanied by a proliferation of species.

Abstract:
Abstract Until quite recently the study of sexual selection was dominated by theoretical issues. However, empirical research on female choice and male combat has increased dramatically, with field and laboratory studies of individually identifiable organisms being the most frequent approach. Every empirical study has to address the question of whether male-male competition or female choice generates the process of sexual selection. Although these two modes of sexual selection were clearly defined by Darwin, it is not always easy to resolve the relative importance of the two processes, nor to d

Abstract:
Abstract Diversity is undoubtedly one of the hallmarks of arthropod biology. Interspecific variation characterizes many features of arthropod behavior, development, morphology, and physiology, and it is particularly evident among sexually selected traits such as mate-recognition signals and preferences. Here, though, its nature and occurrence pose several major problems in evolutionary biology. Whereas most traits can reveal phylogeny because the (ancestral) features of closely related species resemble each other, a species advertisement and courtship signals and mate discriminations usually d
