Coevolution-the process of reciprocal evolutionary change driven by cycles of adaptation and counteradaptation in pairs of interacting species-often produces stunning yet tractable phenotypes in the involved species (Dawkins & Krebs, 1979). As such, these exchanges have become a dominant feature of research aiming to explain the world's biodiversity (Betts et al., 2016;Feeney et al., 2014;Strauss & Irwin, 2004). Examples of coevolution are found throughout the natural world and include interactions between iconic duos, such as predatory bats which have evolved finely tuned sensory systems to hunt their moth prey and the respective moths which have, in turn, evolved to jam their predators' echolocation (Corcoran et al., 2009); and figs (Ficus sp.) that can only be pollinated by certain species of fig wasps (Agaonidae), which in turn rely on the figs to harbour their eggs and larvae as they mature (Machado et al., 2005
