Domain-specific¶
- Rensch's Rule
- Placed against the primate allometry of dimorphism and mating system — where high male-biased SSD covaries with polygyny and male–male competition — that dimorphism has been read as evidence that early hominins were more polygynous and less pair-bonded than modern humans
This sourceComparative-primate analysis of how body-size and canine dimorphism track male competition, and of how far fossil dimorphism can support inferences about australopithecine mating systems.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This work's DOI is recorded above but has not been resolved against an external catalogue, so nothing here confirms the work exists.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
