Occurrence of sexual size dimorphism in belostoma elegans (Heteroptera: Belostomatidae)
Sexual size dimorphism (SSD) is detected in Belostoma elegans for the first time in a multivariate framework. Females are usually bigger than males in Heteroptera species; size is frequently associated with reproductive success. Following this general trend we found that maximum width of the head an...
