Darwinian sex roles confirmed across the animal kingdom
Since Darwin’s conception of sexual selection theory, scientists have struggled to identify
the evolutionary forces underlying the pervasive differences between male and female …

Functions, diversity, and evolution of traumatic mating
Copulation can involve the wounding of the mating partner by specialised devices. This
type of mating, which we term traumatic mating, has been regarded as exceptional. Its …

[HTML][HTML] Red fluorescence in reef fish: a novel signalling mechanism?
Background At depths below 10 m, reefs are dominated by blue-green light because seawater
selectively absorbs the longer, 'red' wavelengths beyond 600 nm from the downwelling …

Copulatory wounding and traumatic insemination
K Reinhardt, N Anthes, R Lange - Cold Spring Harbor …, 2015 - cshperspectives.cshlp.org
Copulatory wounding (CW) is widespread in the animal kingdom, but likely underreported
because of its cryptic nature. We use four case studies (Drosophila flies, Siphopteron slugs, …

Bateman gradients in hermaphrodites: an extended approach to quantify sexual selection
Sexual selection is often quantified using Bateman gradients, which represent sex‐specific
regression slopes of reproductive success on mating success and thus describe the …

Long‐term fallows rate best among agri‐environment scheme effects on farmland birds—A meta‐analysis
J Staggenborg, N Anthes - Conservation Letters, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Agri‐environment schemes (AES) serve to counteract the ongoing decline of farmland bird
populations, but their success remains controversial. We conducted a meta‐analysis to …
