• Food stealing in birds: brain or brawn? (2007, methodology): “Brain mass was available for 1967 species ( Mlíkovsky´1989a , b, c, 1990; DeVoogd et al. 1993; Székely et al. 1996; Garamszegi et al. 2002; Iwaniuk & Nelson 2002; Iwaniuk 2003).”
• Technical innovations drive the relationship between innovativeness and residual brain size in birds (2009, unknown): “Brain size measures obtained with this method yielded 0.99 correlations with data on fresh brains (Iwaniuk & Nelson 2002) and were not influenced by potential errors related to freezing, dessication or perfusion that can affect fresh brains (Healy & Rowe 2007).”
