• To Compensate or Not? Caring Parents Respond Differentially to Mate Removal and Mate Handicapping in the Burying Beetle, Nicrophorus quadripunctatus (2009, background): “As larval begging provides a reliable signal of nestling hunger (Smiseth & Moore 2004a,b), parents are provided with a feedback mechanism to increase care when their partners reduce care (Rauter & Moore 1999).”
• Variation in Individual Investment Strategies among Social Animals (2006, background): “…relatives to enhance the reproductive output of their kin (e.g. Koenig et al. 1992; Mumme 1992; Emlen 1995, 1997; Russell & Hatchwell 2001; Richardson et al. 2003), and males and females cooperate to raise young in many insect, fish and bird species (Smiseth & Moore 2004; Houston et al. 2005).”
• Infanticide, sexual selection and task specialization in a biparental burying beetle (2006, background): “Burying beetles (Nicrophorus spp.) have noted sex differences in the tendency to perform parental tasks; females spend more time feeding young and maintaining the nest and males spend more time guarding the nest and brood (Fetherston et al. 1994; Smiseth & Moore 2004).”
• Time constraints and trade-offs among parental care behaviours: effects of brood size, sex and loss of mate (2004, unknown): “This is consistent with previous findings forN. orbicollis (Fetherston et al. 1990) and forN. vespilloides (Smiseth & Moore 2004; P. T. Smiseth, C. J. Dawson, E. Varley & A. J. Moore, unpublished data).”
• Patterns of parental care in invertebrates (2012, background): “In burying beetles paired males will do less feeding of young or nest maintenance than the female but will almost completely compensate if the mate is removed (Rauter and Moore 2004; Smiseth and Moore 2004).”
• How do caring parents respond to mate loss? Differential response by males and females (2005, methodology): “Carcass size and brood size were included as covariates because these variables could potentially influence parental behaviour (Rauter & Moore 2004; Smiseth & Moore 2004 ).”
• Negotiation over offspring care—how should parents respond to each other's efforts? (2006, unknown): “Theoretical predictions that parents should respond to a change in partner effort with incomplete compensation have prompted numerous empirical tests, most commonly in species of bird that exhibit biparental care (for similar studies of insects see Hunt and Simmons 2002; Smiseth and Moore 2004).”
