Variation in sexual signals and defensive strategies elicits receiver-dependent shifts in attractiveness - PubMed
Sexual selection often favors the evolution of conspicuous mating displays. Emitting such overt displays carries the risk of interception by eavesdropping enemies, i.e. predators, parasitoids and…

Sex-specific manipulation of sexually cannibalistic mantid mating behavior by hairworms
When mating females cannibalize males, both males and the parasites they host die. So, the parasite should manipulate the male host to escape. We show that
