• Social evolution theory for microorganisms (2006, background): “However, other workers are selected to prevent them doing this because it has a cost to colony productivity, and because the policing workers can be more related to the sons of the queen than the sons of other worker”

• Sixteen common misconceptions about the evolution of cooperation in humans (2011, background): “An example of this is provided by species of ant, bee, and wasp, where workers selectively cannibalize or " police " eggs laid by workers so that resources can instead be invested into the offspring of the queen, to whom they are more related (Ratnieks et al., 2006).”
• Social semantics: how useful has group selection been? (2008, background): “Although it is also clear that enforcement strategies such as policing can play an important role in determining the relative advantage of helping relatives (Ratnieks et al., 2006), and that in some species there can even be direct fitness benefits from cooperation (Bernasconi & Strassman, 1999; Que”
• Kin Selection and the Evolutionary Theory of Aging (2007, background): “Worker matricide, preceded by worker aggression toward the mother queen, is likely in other social Hymenoptera with reproduction by queenless workers (Bourke 2005, Ratnieks et al. 2006).”
