性食同类

性食同类（英语：Sexual cannibalism）是指动物个体（通常属雌性）在交配过程之前、期间或随后的同类相食行为。^[1]

这类现象在许多蛛形纲物种、一些昆虫和甲壳类物种^[2]、腹足纲物种，和一些蛇类物种中被观察到。几种假设被提出以解释此类行为如何经演化过程产生：适应性觅食假说（英语：adaptive foraging hypothesis）^[3]、攻击性溢出假说（英语：aggressive spillover hypothesis）^[4]和错误身分假说（英语：mistaken identity hypothesis）^[5]。这类行为被认为是作为性冲突的表现而演化产生，当雄性和雌性的生殖利益（英语：reproductive interest）不同时就会发生。^[6] 发生此类现象的物种的雌性个体通常具有敌意且不愿交配；这些物种的许多雄性个体发展出适应行为以对应雌性的有关行为。^[7]^[8]

性食同类通常被视为亲代投资行为，子代会因此获得以下一项或多项好处：更多数量的子代、更高的子代活力、更好的子代存活率，以及寿命更长和/或更容易繁殖的子代等。由于这些多重好处，性食同类甚至有在一些以植物为主要营养来源的物种发生。^[9]^[10]

性食同类通常伴随著两性个体间的体型差异（参看两性异形），这在一些节肢动物物种尤其明显。^[11]
