“…Intersexual power follows a diagonal from species where power is strongly male-biased in both contexts (see Hamadryas baboons, Papio hamadryas) to strongly female-biased in both contexts (see ring-tailed lemurs, Lemur catta); mammalian societies where reproductive control is strongly female-biased and social control is strongly male-biased, or vice versa, are unlikely to emerge. Reference list: Hamadryas baboon [29,46]; chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) and bonobo (Pan paniscus, see Box 3); Guinea baboon (Papio papio) [77] ; meerkat (Suricata suricatta) [30,78], moustached tamarin (Saguinus mystax) [79][80][81][82][83]; rock hyrax (Procavia capensis) [17,84]; spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta) [16,28,85]; ring-tailed lemur [15,49]; cross-specific data [27,36,86].…”
