Most models of parental investment in offspring assume a trade-off between propagule size and number, and an increasing "concave down" function relating offspring fitness to propagule size. In this study, we test these two fundamental assumptions, using three closely related species of crickets, Gry

A comparative morphological study of the female genitalia in Trypetimorphini shows that Caffrommatissus trimaculatus has a monotrysian condition, while species of Trypetimorpha and Ommatissus are ditrysian. Dissection of Trypetimorpha biermani Dammerman in copula shows that spermatozoa are first dep
