Routes to indirect fitness in cooperatively breeding vertebrates: kin discrimination and limited dispersal.
Hamilton demonstrated that the evolution of cooperative behaviour is favoured by high relatedness, which can arise through kin discrimination or limited dispersal (population viscosity). These two processes are likely to operate with limited overlap: kin discrimination is beneficial when variation i...
