This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Yellow Breasted Chat (final), sexually poly-gyn-androus! because males seek "Extra-Pair Copulations" EPCs (so are sexually polygynous), selected against by nature showing that there are costs associated with EPCs, females seek "Extra-Pair Copulations" EPCs (so are sexually polyandrous) when they are "fertile" (laying eggs) (statistically significant result) (Fig. 5), males seek "Extra-Pair Copulations" EPCs (so are sexually polygynous) at a rate of 0.15 forays / 6 hr (lower than female rate) (during incubation / nestling / fledgling stages) (Fig. 4), the female social partner is not fertile (i.e., during the incubatio & nestling, stages, and at an equal rate) (Fig. 5) because the female is occupied with her offspring so she can't be foraying during this time (additionally, during this time only, the male's foraying rate iis higher than the females rate)., extra-territorial foraying at this time would lower her reproductive fitness so would be selected against by nature, to avoid detection by their male social partner (and were "secretive" in forays) because detection can result in negative consequences from their male social partner, a rate of 0.15 forays / 6 hr (lower than female rate) (during incubation / nestling / fledgling stages) (Fig. 4) and authors suggest that females are controlling extra-territorial foray behavior, socially monogamous but not sexually monogamous and could be considered sexually poly-gyn-androus!, she is busy with her own nest (incubation; nestling; fledgling stages) (Fig. 5) because extra-territorial foraying at this time would lower her reproductive fitness, be secretive (& hide cuckolddry from their female social partner) showing that there are costs associated with EPCs, males seek "Extra-Pair Copulations" EPCs (so are sexually polygynous) during the night (significally more often than day) (Fig 4 shows 3 times greater probability during the night) (during incubation / nestling / fliedling stages), the night significally more frequently than during the day (& during the egg-laying / fertile period) (Fig. 4 shows 3x greater probability during the night, but only shows data for egg laying period in order to avoid detection by their male social partner (and were "secretive" in forays), a rate of 0.22 forays / 6 hr (higher than male rate) (during egg-laying stage) (Fig. 4) and authors suggest that females are controlling extra-territorial foray behavior, detection can result in negative consequences from their male social partner including "harassment" (author's abstract, but detials not provided), sexually poly-gyn-androus! because females seek "Extra-Pair Copulations" EPCs (so are sexually polyandrous), females seek "Extra-Pair Copulations" EPCs (so are sexually polyandrous) at a rate of 0.22 forays / 6 hr (higher than male rate) (during egg-laying stage) (Fig. 4), Yellow-breasted Chat are socially monogamous but not sexually monogamous, his female social partner is fertile (egg-laying) (Fig. 5) because at this time the male is mate-guarding his social partner (and therefore has no time to seek EPCs), the night (significally more often than day) (Fig 4 shows 3 times greater probability during the night) (during incubation / nestling / fliedling stages) in order to be secretive (& hide cuckolddry from their female social partner)
