Evolutionary dynamics of sexual size dimorphism in non-volant mammals following their independent colonization of Madagascar
As predicted by sexual selection theory, males are larger than females in most polygynous mammals, but recent studies found that ecology and life history traits also affect sexual size dimorphism (SSD) through evolutionary changes in either male size, female size, or both. The primates of Madagascar...
