Polyandry enhances offspring viability with survival costs to mothers only when mating exclusively with virgin males in Drosophila melanogaster

Ecology and Evolution, 2017
A prominent hypothesis for polyandry says that male–male competitive drivers induce males to coerce already‐mated females to copulate, suggesting that females are more likely to be harassed in the presence of multiple males.

Fine‐scale genetic structure in co‐operatively breeding Palmchats (Dulus dominicus) suggests mixed kinship in compound nests

Ibis, EarlyView.
Fine‐scale genetic structure in animal populations can create opportunities for both kin‐directed co‐operation and kin competition. Knowledge of kinship is therefore key to understanding the selective pressures shaping sociality as well as the effects of social behaviour on local genetic structure.

External structures at the nest‐site predict asymmetric architecture of nests in a mud‐building bird

Ibis, EarlyView.
In the animal kingdom, nests are essential structures and textbook examples of extended phenotypes. However, the relationship between builders, nest traits and the nest‐site remains poorly understood. We indirectly examine whether structures in the nest‐site influence nest‐building behaviour, specifically focusing on their effect on nest architecture ...

The gendered impact of time on inclusion in African organizations: A systematic literature review

International Journal of Management Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Management and organization research has paid limited attention to how gender, time and organizational dynamics intersect, particularly in shaping gender equality and inclusion. The extant literature also remains largely western‐centric in its focus on the conceptualizations of time and gendered time use.

Schistosome monogamy: who, how, and why?

, 2008
International audienceSchistosomes represent a unique animal model for comparative analyses of monogamy. Indeed, schistosomes are classified at the lowest taxonomical level of monogamous species and lack complex social interactions, which could alter our

Nonapeptide cell size differs between male morphs of the West African cichlid, Pelvicachromis pulcher

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Alternative male morphs are found in many species of fishes. These morphs often differ in suites of social behaviours, such as aggression and territoriality, associated with alternative reproductive tactics. Such consistent morph‐typical behavioural profiles suggest common differences in underlying neuroendocrine mechanisms.

The state of knowledge on four families of Syngnathoidei fishes (Teleostei: Syngnathiformes): Aulostomidae, Centriscidae, Fistulariidae and Solenostomidae

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied ...

Male‐territory‐visiting polygamy in the sand‐dwelling goby Fusigobius inframaculatus (Gobiidae) inhabiting reef caves

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract We conducted an observational field survey of the innerspotted sandgoby Fusigobius inframaculatus on reefs of Kuchierabu‐jima Island, southern Japan, to investigate its mating system. Individuals of the goby maintained home ranges on sandy bottoms within rocky caves or beneath overhangs that served as shelters. Of 34 identified individuals, 32%
