• A functional perspective on sexual selection: insights and future prospects (2006, background): “intermedius), the same secondary sexual trait signals multiple kinds of performance, each of which influences the outcome of male fights (Lailvaux et al. 2005).”
• Decisions during fights in the house cricket, Acheta domesticus: mutual or self assessment of energy, weapons and size? (2008, background): “In the beetle Euoniticellus intermedius, for example, horn size increases with endurance and strength (Lailvaux et al. 2005).”
• Dusk light environment optimizes visual perception of conspecifics in a crepuscular horned beetle (2008, unknown): “Recent evolutionary ecology research on horn and dung beetles has been particularly focused on the evolution and functions of the horn (e.g., Otronen 1988; Emlen 1996; Lailvaux et al. 2005; Moczek et al. 2006; Pomfret and Knell 2006; Simmons and Emlen 2006; and references therein).”
