Variety is the spice of life: female lizards choose to associate with colour-polymorphic male dyads
We test the idea that male colour polymorphism in a lizard (red vs. yellow headed) may be maintained by a female preference for associating (and presumably mating) with both male morphs rather than only one. In female choice experiments on single males of different colours, females did not preferent...
