FIG. 8. Phylogenetic relationships among the seven species of Staminodeus, with Not. basalis, Per. carludovicae and Sys. costaricensis as outgroup taxa; behaviourally relevant characters are mapped (according to fast optimization), homology is indicated by black rectangles and homoplasy by white rectangles; character numbers and state transformations (table 2) are displayed above and below each rectangle, respectively.

FIG. 2. Inflorescence of A. uncinata, pistillate phase: (a) at 03:30 a.m., approximately two hours before arrival of S. vectoris, spathes are deflected, staminodes are extended and fragrant; (b) at 06:30 a.m., approximately one hour after arrival of S. vectoris, staminodes have been detached by females, some individuals feed and attempt to copulate on remains.

FIG. 3 in Mating behaviour of Staminodeus vectoris (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), and the value of systematics in behavioural studies

FIG. 3. Female of S. vectoris, detachment of staminode: (a) female searching and probing staminode of A. uncinata, note damage by previous visitors; (b) female detaching staminode with her mandibles, rocking back and forth and using her rostrum to tear final connections, before falling to ground.

FIG. 1 in Mating behaviour of Staminodeus vectoris (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), and the value of systematics in behavioural studies

FIG. 1. Staminodeus vectoris, habitus: (a) male; (b) protibia of male; (c) spine on frons of female.

Fig. 2 a–g in When dwarf males and hermaphrodites copulate: first record of mating behaviour in a dwarf male using the androdioecious barnacle Scalpellum scalpellum (Crustacea: Cirripedia: Thoracica)

Fig. 2 a–g Penis structure in dwarf males of Scalpellum scalpellum. A hermaphrodite photographed in vivo and carrying dwarf males in the receptacle area on either side of the brood chamber (mantle cavity). b One of the males in close up, revealing the tube-like penis still inside its body. c Another male with the penis already extended for mating; note the length of the penis relative to the small male body; another deeply buried male situated close by. d SEM of dwarf male with penis almost fully extended and showing the side branches. e Tip of the penis furnished with sensory setae; note the central opening. f SEM of dwarf males located symmetrically on either side of the brood chamber; one male with penis extended; note in both d and f how the males are located outside the brood chamber when the mantle valves are fully closed. g SEM of dwarf male fixed when the penis is extended into the brood chamber for mating; the cirri of the hermaphrodite hovering over the male

Figure 4 in Mating behaviour, territoriality and natural history notes of Phyllomedusa ayeaye Lutz, 1966 (Hylidae: Phyllomedusinae) in south-eastern Brazil

Figure 4. Interactions among males of Phyllomedusa ayeaye: (a) a second male successfully interrupts an ongoing oviposition, adopting a posture similar to an amplexus over the amplectant male; (b) physical combat among two territorial males: the attacked male tries to release himself from the grasp of another male, by adopting a hanging posture over the branch; (c) the attacker male further clasps the attacked male and both engage in a ventral position similar to an embrace, hanging over the vegetation by their legs.
