“…Although some terrestrial gastropods mate randomly with respect to shell size (Wolda 1963;Baur 1992), there is substantial evidence that body size affects mating patterns in several marine gastropods (Crozier 1918;Edwards 1968;Staub & Ribi 1995;Angeloni & Bradbury 1999;Johnson 1999;Pal et al 2006;Zahradnik et al 2008).

“…The evidence for size-assortative mating in simultaneous hermaphrodites remains ambiguous: some studies found positive relationships between partner body sizes in field and laboratory populations of molluscs (Tomiyama 1996;Yusa 1996;Angeloni & Bradbury 1999;Angeloni 2003;Angeloni et al 2003;Pal et al 2006), but most of these correlations were rather weak. Several other studies failed to detect any mating patterns that are consistent with size-assortative mating (reviewed in Chaine & Angeloni 2005;Koene et al 2007).…”

“…Thus, when mating with a larger animal, more resources should be diverted to sperm transfer than when mating with a small animal (Angeloni et al, 2002;Jordaens et al, 2007). Empirical studies provide ample evidence for the existence of size-dependent mating (DeWitt, 1996;Yusa, 1996;Angeloni et al, 2002;Ohbayashi-Hodoki et al, 2004;Chaine and Angeloni, 2005;Pal et al, 2006;Jordaens et al, 2007) but also non size-dependent mating strategies in hermaphrodite gastropods species (Switzer-Dunlap et al, 1984;Baur, 1992;. It is conceivable, however, that interpretation of some these studies is confounded by the fact that, for many of the species used, size is a covariant of age.…”

“…Mating patterns are known only for Siphonaria capensis which gives or receives sperm, but not both, in a single mating (non-reciprocal copulation, Pal et al 2006). In Panama, Levings and Garrity (1986) found that S. gigas mate most often (59/86 cases, 68 %) with their nearest neighbors which typically are so close that their shells touch.…”

“…Size-assortative mating has been described for S. capensis and has been ascribed primarily to the association of limpets of similar size at small spatial scales with a lesser contribution of mate choice and mating constraints among available local partners (Pal et al 2006). Each of these processes could contribute to the formation of pairs of similar size in S. gigas as well.…”
