Males of all the species in this family have a lanceolate paramere (intromittent organ) which they use to pierce the female's body wall and inseminate directly into her haemocoel, despite the presence of a functional female genital tract. Mating is tightly linked to the feeding cycle in\n                    <jats:italic>Cimex lectularius<\/jats:italic>\n                    , the common bed bug. In this paper, I examine key aspects of the reproductive anatomy and behaviour of\n                    <jats:italic>C. lectularius<\/jats:italic>\n                    that underpin the nature of the conflict over mating rate in this species. I then examine the consequences of traumatic insemination for female fitness and examine potential mechanisms that might underpin those costs. Finally, the collateral consequences of the male reproductive tactic on other males of\n                    <jats:italic>C. lectularius<\/jats:italic>\n                    and the African bat bug,\n                    <jats:italic>Afrocimex constrictus<\/jats:italic>\n                    are examined.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1098\/rstb.2005.1789","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,1,9]],"date-time":"2006-01-09T11:51:03Z","timestamp":1136807463000},"page":"269-275","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":113,"title":["Trauma, disease and collateral damage: conflict in cimicids"],"prefix":"10.1098","volume":"361","author":[{"given":"M.T","family":"Siva-Jothy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal &amp; Plant Sciences, University of SheffieldSheffield S10 2TN, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"175","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,1,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1420-9101.2003.00551.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/415787a"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.0014-3820.2002.tb01406.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_1","first-page":"81","volume-title":"Monograph of the Cimicidae","author":"Carayon J","year":"1966"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2540.2001.00961.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/aesa\/49.5.466"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Eberhard W.G Sexual selection and animal genitalia. 1985 Cambridge MA:Harvard University Press.","DOI":"10.4159\/harvard.9780674330702"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Eberhard W.G Female control: sexual selection through cryptic female choice. 1996 Princeton NJ:Princeton University Press.","DOI":"10.1515\/9780691207209"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.96.9.5083"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_11_1","first-page":"11","article-title":"Ultrastrukturelle Untersuchungen zum Spermientransfer bei der Bettwanze Cimex lectularius, (Cimicidae, Heteroptera)","volume":"8","author":"Klein C","year":"2000","journal-title":"Heteropteron, K\u00f6ln"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1098\/rstb.2005.1795"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0031182000012762"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1098\/rspb.2003.2514"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_15_1","first-page":"123","volume-title":"Sexual selection and reproductive competition in insects","author":"Parker G.A","year":"1979"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1098\/rspb.2003.2515"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.0307-6946.2005.00730.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/381232a0"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1098\/rspb.2002.2260"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_20_1","unstructured":"Steigner A. 2001 Licht- und elektronenmikroskopische Untersuchungen am inneren Genitalapparat weiblicher Bettwanzen ( Cimex lectularius Linnaeus 1758 Cimicidae Heteroptera).
