Multiple Sexual Ornaments Coevolve with Multiple Mating Preferences
Multiple Sexual Ornaments Coevolve with Multiple Mating Preferences is a scholarly work, published in 1999 in ''The American Naturalist''. The main subjects of the publication include Mating preferences, biology, sexual selection, preference, ecology, pollinator decline, mating, Poecilia, mate choice, zoology, Ornament, evolutionary biology, evolutionary ecology, population, and decline in amphibian populations. The authors selected directly up and down on two visual ornaments, orange and black coloration, in male guppies (Poecilia reticulata) in order to impose indirect selection on the female preference or preferences for these ornaments.
