Extreme range in adult body size reveals hidden trade-offs among sexually selected traits
Sexually selected weapons used to monopolize mating opportunities are predicted to trade-
off with traits used in competition for fertilization. Yet, the limited size range typically found …

Behavioral estimates of mating success corroborate genetic evidence for pre-copulatory selection
In promiscuous species, fitness estimates obtained from genetic parentage may often reflect
both pre-and post-copulatory components of sexual selection. Directly observing …
