Pre- and Post-Copulatory Mate Selection Mechanisms in an African Dung Beetle, Circellium bacchus (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae)

Females of most taxa mate selectively. Mate selection may be: (1) precopulatory,involving active female choice and male-male competition, and (2) postcopulatory,with cryptic female choice and sperm competition.
