Do egg size and parental care coevolve in fishes?
N Kolm, I Ahnesjö - Journal of Fish Biology, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
A phenomenon that has attracted a substantial theoretical and empirical interest is the
positive relationship between egg size and the extent of parental care in fishes. Interestingly …

Paternal care behaviors of Japanese giant salamander Andrias japonicus in natural populations
S Okada, Y Fukuda, MK Takahashi - Journal of Ethology, 2015 - Springer
