Does #SexualSelection fuel #Speciation?
Our new #meta-analysis of comparative studies finds support for a positive relationship, but the rather moderate global effect suggests it’s not necessarily a dominant force.

Wonderful day ending with @couplingdmi.bsky.social who spoke about dock mussels and how anthropogenic hybridization altered marine habitats
Thanks, now I want to go diving in commercial ports in Brittany to see them
