“…This idea has recently received considerable support, with increasing evidence suggesting that the pigments necessary to produce alternative colors may have pleiotropic effects on physiological attributes (Armbruster, 2002; Eliason, Shawkey, & Clarke, 2016; Forsman, Ringblom, Civantos, & Ahnesjö, 2002; Merrill, Van Schooten, Scott, & Jiggins, 2011; Roulin, Almasi, Meichtry‐Stier, & Jenni, 2011). Such alternative strategies have only been studied in a handful of male‐polymorphic organisms (Ahnesjo & Forsman, 2003; Hutchings & Myers, 1994; Lank, Smith, Hanotte, Burke, & Cooke, 1995; Tuttle, 2003) and in three female‐polymorphic organisms: butterflies (Ellers & Boggs, 2002), fishes (Craig & Foote, 2001), and recently, reptiles (Galeotti et al., 2013). In ischnuran damselflies, evidences for the link between color and behavior come from two studies with Ischnura ramburii (Sirot, Brockmann, Marnis, & Muschett, 2003) and I. elegans (Van Gossum, Stoks, & De Bruyn, 2001a).…”
