Sexual conflicts over the post-mating fate of received ejaculate can favour traits in one sex that are costly to the other. And while such conflicts can sometimes be resolved pre-copulatorily—by mate choice or mate avoidance—reciprocally mating hermaphrodites face unique challenges, as they always mate simultaneously in both the male and female role. Reciprocal mating behaviour may lead to receipt of unwanted ejaculate, giving rise to postcopulatory female resistance traits to control and reject such ejaculates. A putative example is the postcopulatory suck behaviour, observed in several species of the flatworm genus Macrostomum. It involves the sperm recipient placing its pharynx over its own female genital opening and appearing to suck, likely removing received ejaculate after mating. The genus also contains hypodermically-inseminating species that presumably exhibit traumatic unilateral mating and have not been observed to suck so far. Furthermore, most Macrostomum species exhibit specific combinations of reproductive morphological traits thought to be associated with one of these two mating strategies. Here, we examine the evolution of the suck behaviour in Macrostomum, aiming to document the mating behaviour in 64 species. First, we provide videographic evidence that ejaculate is indeed removed during the suck behaviour in a reciprocally mating species, Macrostomum hamatum. Next, we show evolutionary positive correlations between the presence, duration and frequency of reciprocal mating behaviour and the suck behaviour, providing clear evidence that the suck behaviour co-evolves with reciprocal mating behaviour. Finally, we show that the reproductive morphology is a good proxy for inferring the behavioural mating strategy of a species.
