This study examines sexual size dimorphism in Drosophila melanogaster and finds that SSD increases with body size, reversing Rensch's rule, driven by female growth rates and temperature effects.

The paper tests how intraguild parasitism affects hyperparasitoid persistence by extending host availability, finding that larval parasitoids increase pupal parasitoid emergence.

This study shows that temporal variability in host availability affects competition outcomes between two parasitoid species based on their reproductive strategies.
