This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: 7.1b Competition for Terr, the rule that the resident always wins territorial conflicts for which there exists conflicting evidence (from the same species), evidence for the hypothesis being Davies' experiment showing that speckled wood butterfly resident males consistently win conflicts over territories, Arbitrary Contest Resolution Hypothesis defined as the rule that the resident always wins territorial conflicts, conflicting evidence (from the same species) with evidence against the hypothesis, evidence for this hypothesis being Ex-resident males removed from their territories and quickly returned typically succeeded in chasing away newcomers, but if they were held away for an extended period, the replacements resisted eviction, 3 (non-mutually exclusive) hypotheses including Payoff Asymmetry Hypothesis, evidence for this hypothesis being Male red-shouldered widowbirds with territories won contests against floaters even when their red shoulder patches were painted black, evidence for this hypothesis being Ex-territory holders in red winged blackbirds were less likely to regain their previous territories if the new maes had been there for a long time, conflicting evidence (from the same species) with evidence for the hypothesis, resident has higher value on the territory than intruders with evidence for this hypothesis, evidence for the hypothesis being the idea that resident males that hold sun-spot territories mate more frequently than non-territorial males, thus indicating an evolutionary advantage to being a resident, the resident male usually wins access to the territory over a new intruder male has been explained by 3 (non-mutually exclusive) hypotheses, Resource-Holding Potential Hypothesis defined as the winners of the territorial contests are determined by having an edge in physical combat, which may be relative to size, strength, or energy reserves, evidence against the hypothesis being Kemp and Wiklund's experiment where original residents won 50 out of 52 contests with new residents after being placed back near their territories showing that residents did not always win, 7.1b Competition for Territories for which the resident male usually wins access to the territory over a new intruder male, Payoff Asymmetry Hypothesis defined as resident has higher value on the territory than intruders, 3 (non-mutually exclusive) hypotheses including Arbitrary Contest Resolution Hypothesis, 3 (non-mutually exclusive) hypotheses including Resource-Holding Potential Hypothesis, the winners of the territorial contests are determined by having an edge in physical combat, which may be relative to size, strength, or energy reserves with evidence for this hypothesis, evidence for this hypothesis being those that win aerial contests in the damselfly species tend to have higher fat content regardless of if they are territorial or non-territorial
