Abstract

The relationship between mating speed, an important component of fitness, and wing length has been analyzed in Drosophila malerkotliana. Flies mating first have longer wings than non-mating flies. Age has no detectable effect on the relationship between mating speed and body size. © 1992, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
