Mathematical observations on the relation between eclosion periodsand the copulation rate of cicadas
In many species of cicadas the peak of eclosion of males precedes that of females.In this paper, we construct a stochastic model and consider whether this sexual difference ofeclosion periods works against mating or not. We also discuss the relation between the peak period of copulations and the...
