Here we assess this prediction of the challenge hypothesis both at the intra-and at the inter-specific level. To test the hypothesis at the inter-specific level, a literature survey on published androgen patterns from teleost fish with different mating systems was carried out. The results confirm the predicted effect of mating system ...
