مستخلص: | Sexual selection influences both genital diversity and mating behaviors, yet the integrated coevolution of pre- (behavioral) and postcopulatory (anatomical) traits in both sexes has received little attention. Traits could potentially evolve through an arms race model of escalations in male persistence and female resistance, and/or through a tradeoff model of inverse correlations between investments in pre- and postcopulatory traits. Pre- and postcopulatory traits of dusky dolphins (Lagenorhynchus obscurus) were compared with bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops spp.) and harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena). Relative testes size and vaginal complexity were measured from dissected specimens. Behavioral traits were analyzed from video recordings of individuals in free-ranging populations. Female precopulatory and male postcopulatory traits were associated, whereas female and male postcopulatory traits or female pre- and postcopulatory traits were not associated. Dusky dolphins differed substantially in several behavioral traits including longer durations of mating group interactions, lower rates of copulation attempts, more males per group, and higher female behavioral resistance. To explore complex processes of integrative coevolution, we recommend future research incorporate pre- and postcopulatory traits and focus on alternative measures of female resistance and male persistence.
