Multiple mating is not driven by size and sperm management in black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens)

The number of spermatozoa stored in the spermathecae of females does not change after one, two and three matings of the male. BSF males and females mate multiple times under controlled conditions. The number of sperm in the
