Talk:Panorpa

Sexual selection

This page only briefly mentioned what panorpa scorpionflies was and the names of different types of the scorpionflies. I think it would be useful to add few sections on the role of this type of scorpionflies in the scientific field. It is suggested to be a model insect for testing theories of sexual selection.^[1] Sections like different characteristics of male and female flies, mating system and sexual selection^[2]^[3], sexual coercion^[4]^[5] etc. could be added.Suellen Kong (talk) 23:58, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
