Intra- Versus Inter-Sexual Selection on Sexually Dimorphic Traits in Drosophila prolongata

Sexual dimorphism, such as sexual size dimorphism (SSD) and sexually dimorphic exaggerated traits, often evolves via sexual selection. In many species, evolution of sexual dimorphism is thought to be driven by either of the two forms of sexual selection: intra- and inter-sexual selection. In some species, however, intra- and inter-sexual selection act simultaneously on the same sexually dimorphic trait. Therefore, it is important to consider the...
