Joint effects of female preference intensity and frequency‐dependent predation on the polymorphism maintenance in aposematic sexual traits

Abstract Maintenance of variation in aposematic traits within and among populations is paradoxical because aposematic species are normally under positive frequency‐dependent predation (PFD), which is expected to erode variation. Aposematic traits can evolve in an ecological context where aposematic...
