Effect of mating history on gender preference in the hermaphroditic snail Physa acuta [PDF]
Animal Behaviour, 2007 Several internally fertilizing hermaphroditic animals can only perform one sexual role at a time. In such species, two individuals that engage in a copulation may have different interests in acting as male or female. A gender choice must be made which, if both individuals have the same preference, may give rise to a severe sexual conflict.
