• Courtship effort is a better predictor of mating success than ornamentation for male wolf spiders (2009, background): “Courtship has been found to be energetically costly in many systems (Kotiaho 2000; Hunt et al. 2004) and thus effort may be indicative of immediate male condition or energy reserves.”
• Condition dependence of pheromones and immune function in the grain beetle Tenebrio molitor (2003, unknown): “Although evidence for indicator models of sexual selection has been found in many empirical studies (Milinski & Bakker 1990; Hill & Montgomerie 1994; Keyser & Hill 1999; David et al . 2000; Kotiaho 2000; Kotiaho, Simmons & Tomkins 2001; see also Johnstone 1995; Møller & Alatalo 1999; Jennions, Mølle”
• Condition dependence of a multicomponent sexual signal in the field cricket Gryllus campestris (2003, background): “Other studies also generally conclude that males provided with a high-quality diet invest more in costly signalling traits (e.g. Backwell et al. 1995; Johnstone 1995; Kotiaho 2000; but see Candolin 1999).”
• A functional perspective on sexual selection: insights and future prospects (2006, background): “In this regard, the finding that individuals with expensive ornaments or displays incur fitness costs only under limited resources (e.g. Kotiaho 2000) has some intriguing implications.”
• Complex courtship displays facilitate male reproductive success and plasticity in signaling across variable environments (2011, background): “Similar condition-dependent display components have been found across several lycosids (e.g., Kotiaho, 2000; Uetz et al., 2002; Gibson and Uetz, 2008; Hebets et al., 2008b; Shamble et al., 2009; Rundus et al., In Press).”
• Sexual advertisement and immune function in an arachnid species (Lycosidae) (2004, background): “being manifested in decreased viability of males in poorer condition (Kotiaho, 2000; Mappes et al., 1996).”
• INFLUENCE OF FEEDING REGIME ON BODY SIZE, BODY CONDITION AND A MALE SECONDARY SEXUAL CHARACTER IN SCHIZOCOSA OCREATA WOLF SPIDERS (ARANEAE, LYCOSIDAE): CONDITION-DEPENDENCE IN A VISUAL SIGNALING TRAIT (2002, background): “Drumming rates vary with size and condition of males, at least in the short term, and the high cost of this energetically expensive display has a negative impact on male survival during the breeding season (Mappes et al. 1996; Kotiaho et al. 1998; Kotiaho 2000).”
• Do sexual ornaments demonstrate heightened condition-dependent expression as predicted by the handicap hypothesis? (2004, background): “ Kotiaho 2000 ). Second, proper account of body size scaling needs to be undertaken as Review S. Cotton and others 781”
• Evaluating performance costs of sexually selected traits (2007, background): “These studies have further demonstrated costs within the same sex and species (foraging efficiency: Møller 1989; Evans & Thomas 1992; oxygen consumption: Basolo & Alcaraz 2003; number of matings: Andersson 1986; survival: Møller & de Lope 1994; Kotiaho 2000).”
• Diet influences mate choice selectivity in adult female wolf spiders (2008, background): “For example, a study using diet manipulations found that male drumming rate in the wolf spider Hygrolycosa rubrofasciata is condition dependent (Kotiaho, 2000).”
• Sexual selection and condition dependence of courtship display in three species of horned dung beetles (2002, background): “Empirical evidence suggesting that sexual traits and displays are expressed in proportion to condition is accumulating (David et al., 1998, 2000; Emlen, 1994; Frischknecht, 1993; Griffith et al., 1999; Hunt and Simmons, 1997; Keyser and Hill, 1999; Kotiaho, 2000; Kotiaho et al., 2001; Mappes et al.,”
