Stress‐induced peak (but not resting) metabolism correlates with mating display intensity in male guppies
Recent empirical and conceptual papers have highlighted the potential for metabolism to act as a proximate mechanism for behavior that could explain animal personality (consistency over time). Under this hypothesis, individuals with consistently high levels of behavioral activity should also have high resting metabolic rate (RMR) as it can reflect capacity to process food and generate energy. W...
متن کاملSong sharing correlates with social but not extrapair mating success in the white-crowned sparrow
Bird song is a prominent example of a trait under interand intrasexual selection. Performance-related aspects of bird song have been shown to vary among males and to influence territorial interactions as well as female mate choice. In oscine songbirds, song is different from many other sexually selected traits in that it is learned. As a result of learning, territorial neighbors share songs in ...
متن کاملMale foraging efficiency, but not male problem-solving performance, influences female mating preferences in zebra finches
Experimental evidence suggests that females would prefer males with better cognitive abilities as mates. However, little is known about the traits reflecting enhanced cognitive skills on which females might base their mate-choice decisions. In particular, it has been suggested that male foraging performance could be used as an indicator of cognitive capacity, but convincing evidence for this hy...
متن کاملMating status correlates with dorsal brightness in some but not all poison frog populations
Sexual signals are important for intraspecific communication and mate selection, but their evolution may be driven by both natural and sexual selection, and stochastic processes. Strawberry poison frogs (Oophaga pumilio) show strong color divergence among populations, but coloration also varies among individuals of the same population. The importance of coloration for female mate choice has bee...
متن کاملCorrelates of male mating success in a lekking bird with male-male cooperation
Correlates of male mating success were examined in a population of long-tailed manakins, Chiroxiphia linearis, that included 270 colour-banded individuals. Long-tailed manakins have a let mating system and male-male cooperation in courtship display. Multivariate analysis of behavioural variables indicated that female visitation correlated with the number of unison 'toledo' calls given by male p...
