Patterns of sexual size dimorphism in horseshoe bats: Testing Rensch’s rule and potential causes
Rensch’s rule, stating that sexual size dimorphism (SSD) becomes more evident and male-biased with increasing body size, has been well supported for taxa that exhibit male-biased SSD. Bats, primarily having female-biased SSD, have so far been tested for whether SSD allometry conforms to Rensch’s rul...
