The genetic mating system of a sea spider with male-biased sexual size dimorphism: evidence for paternity skew despite random mating success
Male-biased size dimorphism is usually expected to evolve in taxa with intense male–male competition for mates, and it is hence associated with high variances in male mating success. Most species of pycnogonid sea spiders exhibit female-biased size dimorphism, and are notable among arthropods for ha...
