Ontogenetic shifts in male mating preference and morph-specific polyandry in a female colour polymorphic insect.

BMC evolutionary biology - 6 Jun 2013

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Sexual conflict over mating rates may favour the origin and maintenance of phenotypes with contrasting reproductive strategies. The damselfly Ischnura elegans is characterised by a female colour polymorphism that consists of one androchrome and two gynochrome female morphs. Previous s...
