Abstract
Females may obtain greater direct benefits by mating with the male showing some types of signals, independently of the costs independent in such species. Five to six days old virgin females and a male (young/middle aged and older) were aspirated into an Elens-Wattaiux mating chamber and observed for an hour. Among three geographical strains males of Mysore strain had inseminated greater number of females in a given unit of time while males of Chamarajanagar strain had inseminated least number of females in a given unit of time.
