翻译后摘要。1。在角甲虫的选择有利于男性调整他们的投资角发展的线索，预测成年人的身体大小。 在这里，它表明，在日本角甲虫，Allomyrina dichotoma。角长、体尺异速生长存在明显的不连续性。这可以被描述为一个线性关系，转向增加角的长度与体长比在男性角长于16毫米。
Abstract. 1. In horned beetles selection favours males that adjust their investment in horn development in relation to cues that predict adult body size. Here it is shown that in the Japanese horned beetle, Allomyrina dichotoma. There is a significant discontinuity in the horn length body size allometry. This can be described as a linear relationship that is shifted towards an increased horn length to body length ratio in males with horns longer than 16 mm.
