• THE EVOLUTION OF EUSOCIALITY (2010, background): “Only very few studies have attempted to do this (Queller and Strassman 1989, Gadagkar 2001) 2 and their results have been mixed.”
• Eusociality: origin and consequences. (2005, background): “Of the 2,600 living taxonomic families of insects and other arthropods currently recognized, only 15 are known to contain eusocial species (13, 24, 37).”
• Choosing an appropriate index to construct dominance hierarchies in animal societies: a comparison of three indices (2010, methodology): “We considered data on queenright and queenless colonies separately because the structure of dominance hierarchies can differ under these two conditions (Sumana & Gadagkar 2001).”
