Why this sexual dimorphismSelection on survivorship and reproduction
Ability to obtain mates:
Sexual Selection:
Different reproductive success due to variation among individuals in success at getting mates
If there is heritable variation in a trait that affects to ability to obtain mates, then variants with higher success at obtaining mates will become more common over time

With few exceptions, females invest much more time and energy in the production of young

Consequences of Asymmetric Limits on Fitness
• Members of the sex subject to strong sexual selection will be competitive (Male-male competition)
• Members of the sex subject to weak sexual selection will be choosy (Female Choice)
• Bateman’s rule, males limited by access to mates, females limited by resources

A phylogeny of the water mite Neumania papillator and several related species.The boxes above the tips of the branches indicate which species have net-stance and which species have male courtship trembling. A colored box indicates the trait is present; an open box indicates the trait is absent. The two versions of the phylogeny show the two most likely scenarios for the evolution of these two traits. Redrawn from Proctor (1992).
