Résumé

Divergent ecological selection drives populations to evolve different trait values. Here, we evaluated whether the length and the allometry of the male guppy genitalia diverged between low‐ and high‐predation habitats. We found that the male genitalia is consistently longer only among high predation juveniles, but among adults, results were quite variable, such as for genitalia allometry.
