Data from: Selection for predation, not female fecundity, explains sexual size dimorphism in the orchid mantises

, 2016
Here we reconstruct the evolutionary shift towards floral simulation in orchid mantises and suggest female predatory selection as the likely driving force behind the development of extreme sexual size dimorphism.

A review of the research on Canary Islands praying mantises (Mantodea)

, 2018
For many years researchers studying the fauna of the Canary Islands have only sparsely treated the charismatic insect order of praying mantises (Mantodea). By studying the known literature it becomes obvious that there are several inconsistencies regarding mantodean taxonomy as well as the number of actual species and their distribution within the ...
