Bonobo sexual promiscuity increases male paternity-certainty and strengthens pair bonds. It is thought to aid group cohesion by inhibiting male aggression. It only involves non-relatives to avoid incestuous mating and is used to establish dominance. It is a compensation for low fertility rates in that species.

When hybrids between closely related species have lower fitness than either parental type, it is known as extrinsic postzygotic isolation. Reinforcement is one form of extrinsic postzygotic isolation that involves assortative mating, as in the Phlox example described in this chapter. But assortative mating is not required for low hybrid fitness to contribute to isolation between groups in the early stages of speciation. For an example from butterflies, see:
