Behavioral data for: Effect of experience on mating behaviour in male Heliconius melpomene butterflies

This is the data file that corresponds to "Effect of experience on
mating behavior in male Heliconius melpomene butterflies" by P.A.
Rather, A.E. Herzog, D.A. Ernst, & E.L. Westerman, published in
Animal Behaviour. It contains two spreadsheets, one with all the mating
outcome data, and one with the corresponding behavioral data for the
training and testing assays. Due to electrical issues with the data
recording device during some of our assays, we do not have behavioral
data, other than courtship and time to courtship (which were recorded both
electronically and by hand) for all our assays, though we do have complete
behavioral data for most of our assays. In our study, we show that H.
melpomene males who have been previously exposed to a female but did not
mate during that prior exposure are less likely to court during a second
exposure than a naive male of the same age. This effect appears to be
driven by H. m. malleti males, as H. m. malleti males exhibited a strong
response to the exposure, while H. m. rosina males did not.
