I am the original author of the linked "notes on sexual selection" which now goes to a bad link. If anyone updating this page or similar pages on parasites or parasite-mediated sexual selection would like to use the material from the notes, please contact me at bolker@mcmaster.ca — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.113.205.201 ( talk) 10:58, October 24, 2011‎
