Brain nuclei in actively courting red-sided garter snakes: a paradigm of neural trimorphism.

Physiology & behavior - 28 Mar 2011

Abstract excerpt

During the breeding season, two distinct male phenotypes are exhibited by red-sided garter snakes (Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis), with courtship behavior being directed not only toward females, but also toward a sub-population of males called she-males. She-males are morphologically identical to other males except for a circulating androgen level three times that of normal males and their ability to produce a...
