A solution to a sex ratio puzzle in Melittobia wasps

A solution to a sex ratio puzzle in Melittobia wasps

The puzzling sex ratio behavior of Melittobia wasps has long posed one of the greatest questions in the field of sex allocation. Laboratory experiments have found that, in contrast to the predictions of theory and the behavior of numerous other organisms, Melittobia females do not produce fewer fema...
