“…Although most emphasis has been to the temperate species, which are subject to abrupt changes in temperature, the results observed for tropical species, has been very interesting. The most studies in tropical species generally deal with aspects of female reproduction and pregnancy (Rasweiler, 1972, 1974, 1978, 1982, 1987, 1993; Quintero and Rasweiler, 1974; Badwaik et al, 1997; Rasweiler and Badwaik, 1997; Badwaik and Rasweiler, 2001; Komar et al, 2007; Nolte et al, 2009), and only a few examinations are focused on male patterns, and these are primarily based in ecological–behavioral perspectives (Wilson and Findley, 1971; Fabián and Marques, 1989; Heideman et al, 1992; Heideman and Bronson, 1994; Zortéa, 2003; Léon‐Galván et al, 2005; Chaverri and Kunz, 2006; Costa et al, 2007; Ortêncio‐Filho et al, 2007).…”
