• Ultraviolet and green parts of the colour spectrum affect egg rejection in the song thrush (Turdus philomelos) (2007, background): “This example illustrates how questionable the usage of categories such as mimetic versus nonmimetic might be (for a detailed discussion of this issue, see Grim, 2005).”
• Cuckoo adaptations: trickery and tuning (2011, background): “However, experiments are needed to test this because begging calls like those of host young may also be a case of ‘tuning’ to enhance host provisioning (Kilner, Noble & Davies, 1999; Grim, 2005; Madden & Davies, 2006).”
