Scientists are studying the mating habits of a population of butterfly fish on a Caribbean coral reef. They discover that both the largest and smallest males get the most mates and pass on the largest number of genes to the population's offspring. The largest males get a large number of mates because they can guard the females, preventing most of the smaller males from mating. However, the very smallest males also get a large number of mates because they escape the notice of the larger males and are able to mate with the females quickly. Based on these observations, which selective force appears to be acting on male body size in this population?
