Is parental care behavior in Belostoma species an evolutionary cause for their common sexual size dimorphism pattern?
Current evidence suggests that sexual size dimorphism (SSD) reflects the male and female adaptation to their different reproductive roles. Belostoma and Lethocerus species, included in Belostomatidae, present different kinds of paternal care. Females of Belostoma Latreille species lay their eggs on...
