“…In wild populations, adult male body size is highly variable despite minimal post-maturation growth (Kahn, Mautz, & Jennions, 2010). In general, larger males have higher insemination success per mating attempt (Head, Vega-Trejo, Jacomb, & Jennions, 2015, but see Pilastro, Giacomello, & Bisazza, 1997) and females prefer to associate with larger males (Bisazza, Vaccari, & Pilastro, 2001;Kahn et al, 2010). This might indicate that females associate and copulate with larger males because they impose lower costs than smaller males which harass, and attempt to copulate with, females more (Bisazza & Marin, 1995;Hughes, 1985;Pilastro et al, 1997).…”
