Divergent alternative mating tactics in convergent male reproductive morphs

Alternative reproductive phenotypes involve polymorphic behaviours and forms within sexes. Testing whether behavioural variants such as alternative tactics (e.g., sneaking or satellite behaviour) are initially co-expressed or decoupled from morphological polymorphisms (e.g., weapon size or colour pattern) can provide insight into the origins of reproductive diversity. In Hawaiian field crickets (Teleogryllus oceanicus), an eavesdropping parasitoid fly selected for rapid, parallel evolution of male wing mutations that reduce acoustic signals. Two of these, ‘flatwing’ and ‘curly-wing’, co-occur in populations alongside ancestral ‘normal-wing’ males that can sing. These convergent alternative morphs may both rely on satellite tactics in which non-singing males position themselves near calling males to intercept females, rather than attracting mates directly by producing a conspicuous song. Here we test whether flatwing and curly-wing vary in their tendencies to express satellite behaviour ..., , # Divergent alternative mating tactics in convergent male reproductive morphs
