Factors affecting site fidelity in a territorial animal, Perithemis tenera
Article Abstract:
The characteristics of site fidelity in Pertithemis tenera dragonflies were analyzed based on a theoretical model representing spatial and temporal variation in territory quality and reproductive success. Analysis of the territorial model for eastern amberwing dragonfly indicated the influence of amberwing site fidelity on mating success. On the other hand, site fidelity increased with age which also modulated male amberwing behaviour.
