The effect of social environment on alternative mating tactics in male Endler?s guppy, Poecilia wingei

Original language description

Variation in sexual behaviour has both genetic (no experience or social contact needed) and environmental (based on individual experience) components. Within species, males can maximize their fitness during inter- and intrasexual selection in a variety of ways. This may lead to evolution of alternative male mating behaviours resulting in a dichotomy between courting/guarding and sneaking tactics. We used Endler?s guppies to investigate (1) whether individual sexually na?ve males have a preferred matingtactic (courting or sneaking), and (2) how male mating behaviour is affected by recent social history (male- or female-biased social environment). We found that individual males approached females by either courting or sneaking, even with no previous sexual experience. We further demonstrated that male sexual behaviour in standardized mating trials was strongly affected following exposure to a sexbiased social environment for 5 weeks. Males from female-biased social environments showed d
