Male tenure length and variance in lifetime reproductive success recorded for mammals

The data presented in these sheets is the basis for the analyses presented in Dieter Lukas and Tim Clutton-Brock Costs of mating competition limit male lifetime breeding success in polygynous mammals Proc. R. Soc. B July 7, 2014 281 1786 20140418; doi:10.1098/rspb.2014.0418 1471-2954 http://rspb.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/281/1786/20140418.abstract Please note that earlier versions of the file SupplementaryData_Lukas&CluttonBrock_LifetimeReproductiveSuccess_varianceinLRS_ProcB2014.csv (including the version provided as supplement at the publisher) included a copying mistake when preparing the data for publication where the line for Papio_cynocephalus - females was a duplication of the line for Propithecus_verreauxi - females. This has now been corrected.
