• Interspecific variation in plumage colour among birds: species recognition or light environment? (2002, methodology): “Additionally, because the values that segment analysis ascribed to colours were absolute, it may not have extracted as much statistical power from a database as would have a method such as principle component analysis ( Grill & Rush, 2000 ).”
• Interacting effects of ambient light and plumage color patterns in displaying Wire-tailed Manakins (Aves, Pipridae) (2003, methodology): “Both methods objectively describe variation in spectral data (Endler 1990; Endler and Thery 1996; Cuthill et al. 1999; Grill and Rush 2000).”
• How feather colour reflects its carotenoid content (2003, methodology): “Following previous studies (e.g. Endler 1990; Hill 1998; Grill & Rush 2000), we used three commonly used components of colour (hue, chroma and brightness) to characterise plumage-colour variation in this species.”
• Comparing plumage colour measurements obtained directly from live birds and from collected feathers: the case of the great tit Parus major (2006, result): “This is similar to the approach used in other studies, which have either truncated the spectrum in order to study the visible (Grill and Rush 2000, Perrier et al. 2002), UV (Andersson et al. 1998, Doucet 2002, Siitari and Huhta 2002) or both ranges (Doucet and Montgomerie 2003b, Bleiweiss 2004).”
• Ultraviolet signals ultra-aggression in a lizard (2006, methodology): “Pryke et al. 2001; Andersson et al. 2002), where R ¼ reflectance at a particular wavelength l, and R320e700 is the sum of reflectance from 320 to 700 nm. Although using traditional measures (hue, chroma, brightness) of colour analysis has the advantage that it is simpler to interpret and comparable ”
