There is accumulating evidence that sexual interactions among species (re- productive interference) could have dramatic effects for species' coexistence. It has been shown that the fitness of individuals can be substantially reduced as a consequence

Sexual size dimorphism (SSD) is a common phenomenon in animal taxa. While males are the larger sex in many birds and mammals, femalebiased SSD predominates among insects, including Orthoptera. We analyzed size differences of 1503 Orthoptera species,

Although sexual interactions between species (reproductive interference) have been reported from a wide range of animal taxa, their potential for determining species coexistence is often disregarded. Here, we review evidence from laboratory and field

SUMMARY The question of how phenotypic variation is maintained within populations has long been a central issue in evolutionary biology. Most of these studies focused on the maintenance of genetic variability, but the phenotype of organisms may also

Similar to resource competition, reproductive interference may hamper the coexistence of closely related species. Species that utilize similar signal channels during mate finding may face substantial fitness costs when they come into contact and demo

1. As species are often considered discrete natural units, interspecific sexual interactions are often disregarded as potential factors determining community composition. Nevertheless reproductive interference, ranging from signal jamming to hybridiz

Sexual differences in habitat preferences have been reported from a variety of animal taxa. However, the ultimate causes for this intersexual niche segregation remain poorly understood. It has been suggested that sexual dimorphism is a consequence of

Preventing the global decline in biodiversity is a major task for conservation biologists. Although habitat loss has been identified as a key factor driving extinction processes, our knowledge on the habitat requirements of many endangered species, p

Specific mate recognition systems should enable species to recognize conspecific mates correctly. However, heterospecific matings have been observed in a variety of taxa. One of these cases is the pygmy grasshopper genus Tetrix, in which three specie

On four days in spring 1999, the behaviour of Tetrix subulata (Linnaeus 1758) was observed at a sand pit near Bremen (Germany) with main emphasis on the feeding behaviour. Males were exclusively feeding on algae and mosses, while females also include
