Yiran Shang D epartm ent of Biological Sciences, M acquarie U niversity, Australia Introduction Body size has alw ays been an im portant m easurem ent for insects, as w ell as for Platysaurus broadleyi (Exhibit 2). It is an im portant feature because it is closely related to natural selection and evolution (Chow n, 2010). According to a research experim ent, no m atter w hich species the fem ales belong to, m ales tend to select fem ales w ith large body size (W ym ann & W hiting, 2003). Therefore, in general, the above tw o researches indicates that the size of fem ale is one essential factor w hen m ales considers to choose m ates. A im To test the relationship betw een the tw o variables: the size of fem ale (being independent variable) and m ale’s choice (being dependent variable). M ethod • Choose 20 longest fem ale lizards out of 50 to form group L, 20 of the shortest fem ales to form group S • A cham ber that is divided into three parts • Put one longer fem ale into one part and one shorter fem ale into another, leave the third part for 20 m ale lizards to enter and select their m ates • Selection of size from m ale and fem ale body sizes w ill be recorded and com pared Exhibit 1: C om parison of m ale choice in S group and L group R esult There is significant difference, at 5% significance level, in the selected fem ale’s body size betw een. Critical value at 10.26 degree of freedom is -1.8110, higher than t = -2.95, m eaning that the body size of chosen fem ale is significantly sm aller rather than larger. (df=10.26, critical=-1.8110>t=-2.95) P value from Fisher test is less than 0.001, also proves that the selected fem ale is significantly sm all at 5% significance level. Therefore, m ale lizard like to choose fem ales of larger body m ore than those of sm aller body, and body size is one significant factor for m ale w hen selecting m ating partners. (T-test: p=0.001<0.05) c onclusion supported by the statistical outcom e in the experim ent, there is significant relationship betw een the size (large and sm all)of fem ale body and m ale choice. m ale tend to choose fem ales of larger size. sam e result also can be searched from another research. another study from other scholar show s that, as the body length of fem ale becom e longer, m ore m ale w ill go chase after and m ate w ith them (w hiting, 1999). therefore, according to the experim ent above and supported by the scholar’s research, body size of fem ale lizard is one significant factor that m ale lizard use w hen selecting m ates. r eferences • chow n, s.l. and g aston, k .j., 2010. body size variation in insects: a m acroecological perspective. biological review s, 85(1), pp.139-169. • w ym ann, m .n . and w hiting, m .j., 2003. m ale m ate preference for large size overrides species recognition in allopatric flat lizards (platysaurus broadleyi). acta ethologica, 6(1), pp.19-22. • w hiting, m .j. and batem an, p.w ., 1999. m ale preference for large fem ales in the lizard platysaurus broadleyi. journal of h erpetology, 33(2), pp.309- 312.exhibit 2: platysaurus b roadleyi standing on the ground photo: tropical h obbies w ebsite kuo wang-poster-false garden mantid you are w hat you eat: eat m ore, g row stronger introduction the false garden m antid (pseudom antis albofim briata) (figure i) is a m oderate insect com m only seen in australia (allen et al. 2011). previous study dem onstrated that in the case of this species, the lack of resource during c="" onclusion="" supported="" by="" the="" statistical="" outcom="" e="" in="" the="" experim="" ent,="" there="" is="" significant="" relationship="" betw="" een="" the="" size="" (large="" and="" sm="" all)of="" fem="" ale="" body="" and="" m="" ale="" choice.="" m="" ale="" tend="" to="" choose="" fem="" ales="" of="" larger="" size.="" sam="" e="" result="" also="" can="" be="" searched="" from="" another="" research.="" another="" study="" from="" other="" scholar="" show="" s="" that,="" as="" the="" body="" length="" of="" fem="" ale="" becom="" e="" longer,="" m="" ore="" m="" ale="" w="" ill="" go="" chase="" after="" and="" m="" ate="" w="" ith="" them="" (w="" hiting,="" 1999).="" therefore,="" according="" to="" the="" experim="" ent="" above="" and="" supported="" by="" the="" scholar’s="" research,="" body="" size="" of="" fem="" ale="" lizard="" is="" one="" significant="" factor="" that="" m="" ale="" lizard="" use="" w="" hen="" selecting="" m="" ates.="" r="" eferences="" •="" chow="" n,="" s.l.="" and="" g="" aston,="" k="" .j.,="" 2010.="" body="" size="" variation="" in="" insects:="" a="" m="" acroecological="" perspective.="" biological="" review="" s,="" 85(1),="" pp.139-169.="" •="" w="" ym="" ann,="" m="" .n="" .="" and="" w="" hiting,="" m="" .j.,="" 2003.="" m="" ale="" m="" ate="" preference="" for="" large="" size="" overrides="" species="" recognition="" in="" allopatric="" flat="" lizards="" (platysaurus="" broadleyi).="" acta="" ethologica,="" 6(1),="" pp.19-22.="" •="" w="" hiting,="" m="" .j.="" and="" batem="" an,="" p.w="" .,="" 1999.="" m="" ale="" preference="" for="" large="" fem="" ales="" in="" the="" lizard="" platysaurus="" broadleyi.="" journal="" of="" h="" erpetology,="" 33(2),="" pp.309-="" 312.exhibit="" 2:="" platysaurus="" b="" roadleyi="" standing="" on="" the="" ground="" photo:="" tropical="" h="" obbies="" w="" ebsite="" kuo="" wang-poster-false="" garden="" mantid="" you="" are="" w="" hat="" you="" eat:="" eat="" m="" ore,="" g="" row="" stronger="" introduction="" the="" false="" garden="" m="" antid="" (pseudom="" antis="" albofim="" briata)="" (figure="" i)="" is="" a="" m="" oderate="" insect="" com="" m="" only="" seen="" in="" australia="" (allen="" et="" al.="" 2011).="" previous="" study="" dem="" onstrated="" that="" in="" the="" case="" of="" this="" species,="" the="" lack="" of="" resource="">

Feedback:
The poster from presenter is average, as core content of methodology is missed. The statistical part is not clearly explained in result section. The colour used for background is not good for visual appeal and suggested to choose best colour with light background to have uniformity, logo needs to be in right corner as per standard and minimize the blank space in poster as it appears most of the content are missed.
