The article discusses research which aimed to identify the mechanisms of strict monandry in wandering wolf spider species. Topics covered include the damage that males make to the inner walls of the female genital tract, the impact of seminal fluid on the suppression of female mating, and the genital tract injury that greatly suppressed female willingness to mate as well as the development of mating plugs that prevented mating.
