一个物种的交配系统的进化受到雌性和/或资源的空间和时间分布的强烈影响。在这里,我们描述的领域行为的男性的一个孤独的挖掘黄蜂,欧洲蜂狼(Philanthus triangulum)和特征的交配系统。我们发现,蜂狼男性建立小的领土,不包含任何必要的女性资源。这些领土是密集的气味标记与信息素从头腺和防御入侵者在战斗飞行。我们提供的证据表明,气味标记构成化学显示和信息素的服务,以吸引接受女性,因此,代表性信息素。使用空间统计,我们表明,蜂狼领土在空间上都相对于其他男性领土,更重要的是,相对于女性筑巢地点。此外,雄鸟占据领地的天数比例与附近雌鸟巢穴的数量相关。考虑到蜂狼男性不捍卫或提供必要的资源,女性,但仅仅显示化学吸引女性交配的聚集领域接近女性筑巢地点,我们的结论是,欧洲蜂狼表现出一个热点列克一夫多妻制与女性筑巢网站构成“热点”列克形成。
The evolution of the mating system of a species is strongly influenced by the spatial and temporal distribution of females and/or resources. Here, we describe aspects of the territorial behavior of males of a solitary digger wasp, the European beewolf (Philanthus triangulum) and characterize the mating system. We show that beewolf males establish small territories that do not contain any resources essential to females. These territories are intensively scent-marked with a pheromone from a cephalic gland and are defended against intruders in combat flights. We provide evidence that scent-marking constitutes a chemical display and that the pheromone serves to attract receptive females and, thus, represents a sex pheromone. Using spatial statistics, we show that beewolf territories are clumped in space both with respect to other male territories and, more importantly, with respect to female nesting sites. Additionally, the proportion of days a territory is occupied by a male is correlated with the number of female nests in the vicinity. Taking into account that beewolf males do not defend or provide resources essential to females, but merely display chemically to attract females for mating in an aggregation of territories close to female nesting sites, we conclude that the European beewolf exhibits a hotspot lek polygyny with female nesting sites constituting “hotspots” for lek formation.
