Size-assortative mating and sexual size dimorphism are predictable from simple mechanics of mate-grasping behavior
BACKGROUND: A major challenge in evolutionary biology is to understand the typically complex interactions between diverse counter-balancing factors of Darwinian selection for size assortative mating and sexual size dimorphism. It appears that rarely a simple mechanism could provide a major explanati...
