• Female perception of size-related formant shifts in red deer, Cervus elaphus (2007, unknown): “et al. 1999; McComb et al. 2003; Rendall 2003), sex (Rendall et al. 2004), maturity (Reby & McComb 2003) and body size (Fitch 1997; Riede & Fitch 1999; Reby & McComb 2003; Harris et al. 2006 ).”
• Between-group contest competition for food in a highly folivorous population of black and white colobus monkeys (Colobus guereza) (2006, methodology): “In each regression, I controlled for differences in group size, number of males, and mean male roar formant dispersion (a proxy for body size: Harris et al. 2006) of the groups’ top-ranking, roaring males.”
• Size Communication in domestic dog (Canis familiaris) growls. (2010, unknown): “…sources of acoustic variation in mammals is body size, and more specifically the effect of body size on the vocal tract resonances or ‘formant’ frequencies of vocalizations (Fitch 1997; Riede & Fitch 1999; Reby & McComb 2003; Harris et al. 2006; Sanvito et al. 2007; Vannoni & McElligott 2008).”
• Vocal Expression of Emotions in Mammals: Mechanisms of Production and Evidence (2012, background): “…length can be achieved by various mechanisms including lips extension, modification of the level of nasalization, and most commonly, retraction of the larynx into the throat (Owren, Seyfarth & Cheney, 1997; Fitch, 2000b; Fitch & Reby, 2001; Harris et al., 2006; McElligott, Birrer & Vannoni, 2006).”

• The contribution of source–filter theory to mammal vocal communication research (2010, background): “…to act as an additional resonator during roars, thereby lowering their formants in comparison to what would normally be observed for animals of the same body size (Harris et al., 2006; also see Riede et al., 2008 for an experimental test of the effect of laryngeal airsacs on formant frequencies).”
