Percentages of male courtship (light grey bars) and copulation (black bars) paired with female receptivity (white bars) of T. sarcophagae males with untreated (alive) con- and heterospecific females: Left: Courtship behavior, triggered female receptivity and copulation attempts in pairings of T. sarcophagae males with untreated conspecific females. Center and right: Courtship behavior, triggered female receptivity and copulation attempts in pairings of T. sarcophagae males with untreated heterospecific N. vitripennis and M. uniraptor females, respectively. 20 replicates performed for each treatment group, different letters or numerals indicate significant differences between treatment groups, upper-case letters are used for courtship behavior, lower-case letters for copulation attempts, and roman numerals for female receptivity, compared independently by Benjamini-Hochberg corrected χ2 (Chi)-square tests, performed on absolute values
