• Host plants and butterfly biology. Do host‐plant strategies drive butterfly status? (2004, background): “In # 2004 The Royal Entomological Society, Ecological Entomology, 29, 12–26 the case of more limited nectar use this may result partly from mechanical limitations of smaller proboscises of smaller butterflies (Corbet, 2000) as well as exposure to fewer nectaring opportunities.”
• Biodiversity, species interactions and ecological networks in a fragmented world (2012, background): “Since t and body size are positively correlated (Corbet, 2000; Stang et al., 2006) or, in fact, triangularly related (short-tongued pollinators vary considerably in body size, whereas”
• Factors Influencing Nectar Plant Resource Visits by Butterflies on a University Campus: Implications for Conservation (2005, background): “…adult feeding in butterfl ies mainly from surveys of temperate butterfl ies (e.g., Faegri & van der Pijl 1979; Jennersten 1984; Porter et al. 1992; Corbet 2000; Tudor et al. 2004): (i) extensive variation in the range of dependency on nectar as a resource, (ii) varying degrees of generalism…”
• Size constraints and flower abundance determine the number of interactions in a plant /flower visitor web (2006, methodology): “In the Asteraceae we measured the depth of the upper wider part of the corolla, which roughly begins where the stamens insert and ends where the corolla flares out (Corbet, 2000a).”
• Changes in nectar supply: A possible cause of widespread butterfly decline (2012, result): “Most of the butterfly-flower associations found in this study, although constituting correlative evidence, confirm reported flower preferences (e.g. Jennersten, 1984; Corbet, 2000; Tudor et al., 2004; Bos et al., 2006).”
