Bar graphs giving mean intensity (A), duration (B) and success (C) of male-male contests in olive fruit flies, Bactrocera oleae, with different winning experiences.

Naïve = fight-inexperienced male. Winner = winner of one previous encounter. Twofold winner = winner of two previous encounters. Inter-fight intervals (IFI) were 5 min and 15 min. Both flies exposed to artificially crowded conditions until 24 h before the experimental phase and individuals isolated for their entire life until the experimental phase were tested. Different letters above each bar indicated significant differences. T-bars are standard errors.
