An ecological classification of odonate mating systems: the relative influence of natural, inter- and intra-sexual selection on males

Abstract: We separate the mating systems of odonates into two main groups: non-resource and resource-based systems. These two groups comprise five classes of mating system: encounter-limited mating, free female choice, resource-limitation, resource-control and female-control. These classes are consistent with previous classifications of odonate mating systems and with the overall classification of mating systems by Emlen & Oring (1977: Science, 197: 215-223). Whereas Emlen & Oring's classification of mating systems was … Show more

“…However, detailed studies have determined a more complex picture that classify their mating systems into: i) non-resource-based systems, subdivided into free female choice, female-control, and encounter-limited systems and ii) resource-based systems; subdivided into resource-control and resource-limitation systems (Conrad & Pritchard 1992, Battin 1993. As part of their classification, Conrad & Pritchard (1992) used the way that odonate males control female access to oviposition sites. For example, if oviposition sites are clumped it is economically possible to fight for control of female access to these sites (Sherman 1983, Buskirk & Sherman 1985, Alcock 1987.…”

“…This also diminished the harassment of mated females by other males and could be advantageous to the females (Waage 1979a;Conrad & Pritchard 1990). Emlen & Oring (1977) pointed out that receptive female availability and possibility of resource defense by males are key factors in mating system evolution, and this was also emphasized particularly in Odonata (Conrad & Pritchard 1992). The mating systems showed by H. consors is not based purely on active search for females, but on waiting for mating opportunities by males that cannot control oviposition resources.…”

“…The mating systems showed by H. consors is not based purely on active search for females, but on waiting for mating opportunities by males that cannot control oviposition resources. According to the Conrad & Pritchard (1992) classification, H. consors fits to a non-resource system. Co-occurence between potential sexual partners in time and space in H. consors and the absence of courtship displays contribute to the maintenance of males with the ability to defend areas with better chance to intercept females.…”
