Life history adaptation along a latitudinal cline in the water strider Aquarius remigis (Heteroptera: Gerridae)

The role of multilevel selection in the evolution of sexual conflict in the water strider aquarius remigis.

In evolution, exploitative strategies often create a paradox in which the most successful individual strategy "within" the group is also the most detrimental strategy "for" the group, potentially resulting in extinction. With regard to sexual conflict, the overexploitation of females by harmful males can yield similar consequences. Despite these evolutionary implications, little research has ad...

Assembly of the fluorescent acrosomal matrix and its fate in fertilization in the water strider, Aquarius remigis.

Animal sperm show remarkable diversity in both morphology and molecular composition. Here we provide the first report of intense intrinsic fluorescence in an animal sperm. The sperm from a semi-aquatic insect, the water strider, Aquarius remigis, contains an intrinsically fluorescent molecule with properties consistent with those of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), which appears first in the ...
