Additional file 1: Table S1. of The evolution of genital complexity and mating rates in sexually size dimorphic spiders
Nephilid spider and outgroup data for all variables used in phylogenetic comparative analyses. Mating rates are inferred based on experimental and morphological evidence. Separate (Excel) file. (XLSX 16 kb
Additional file 4: Figure S2. of The evolution of genital complexity and mating rates in sexually size dimorphic spiders
Contrasting phylogenetic topologies: A, cladogram from Kuntner et al. (2008) with no branch length information; B, Bayesian tree from Kuntner et al. (2013) with rearranged taxonomic relationships and branches proportional to evolutionary change. See Methods for additional detail. Separate (pdf) file. (PDF 290 kb
Additional file 6: Figure S3. of The evolution of genital complexity and mating rates in sexually size dimorphic spiders
Relationships of studied phenotypes with female and male inferred mating rates (raw, species data). Relationships that become significant after phylogenetic correction are highlighted. (PDF 25 kb
Additional file 2: Figure S1. of The evolution of genital complexity and mating rates in sexually size dimorphic spiders
Relatively simple (left; Clitaetra) and complex (right, Herennia) genital morphology in nephilid spiders. Upper images show distal parts of the male pedipalp, lower images show female epigyna. Note that the male embolic conductor (EC) interacts with the copulatory opening (CO) of the female, and if broken off, may form an elaborate mating plug (lower right). (EPS 7104 kb
