Sex differences in alternative reproductive tactics in response to predation risk in tree crickets

Data collected to address the question of whether increasing predation risk induces alternative reproductive tactics and/or affects survival and what consequently affects fitness in male and female crickets. Enclosure experiments were performed using 3 different predation treatments that varied in the predator-prey ratio maintained across 7 nights. <br><br>There are 4 datasets, 2 each for 2 sexes. The 'arts_females_comm' and 'arts_males_comm' are individual-level data per night that include probabilitiy of co-occurrence with a spider, mate searching behaviour, survival and matings recorded for each individual. These data were used to analyse whether mate searching and survival were influenced by the nightly predation risk experienced by each individual separately for male and female crickets.<br><br>The other two datasets, 'arts_females_ind_comm' and 'arts_males_ind_comm' are the same data summarised for each individual across the duration they were alive. These data were used to analyse whether mating success were influenced by mate searching and survival of each individual separately for male and female crickets.<br><br>
