Lower Cretaceous trackways assignable to xiphosurids were recently found in tidally
influenced marginal-marine deposits of the Agrio Formation (Patagonia, Argentina). The aim …

Multiple paternity is taxonomically widespread, yet the relative role of direct and indirect
(genetic) fitness benefits in explaining the evolution of multiple mating is a topic of intense …

Although it is generally assumed that one or a few matings are sufficient to maximize female
fitness and that mating is generally assumed to be costly to females, multiple matings of …

Abstract The American horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus, migrates to beaches at
Seahorse Key, FL, on the highest-high tides to mate and deposit clutches of fertilized eggs …

Intense male–male competition driven by high male density during mating can result in the
evolution of alternative mating tactics that increase male fertilization success. The effects of …
