- Nutritional composition of the preferred prey of insectivorous birds: popularity reflects quality (2015, unknown): “Changes in diet composition have been implicated in declines of insectivorous birds elsewhere (Britschgi et al. 2006), with dietary composition during the breeding season especially critical (Ramsay and Houston 2003, Arnold et al. 2010, Eeva et al. 2010).”
- Urbanization, nestling growth and reproductive success in a moderately declining house sparrow population (2012, background): “It is not yet known whether ‘e-prey’ is superior merely due to the disproportionately larger quantity of nutrients it provides (Schwagmeyer and Mock 2008) or because it represents specific taxa of particular nutritional value (e.g. spiders contain high levels of taurine, Ramsay and Houston 2003).”
- Stoichiometry: Linking elements to biochemicals (2004, background): “…adversely impacting on growth in various organisms including insects (Briegel 1985, Karowe and Martin 1989), marine zooplankton (Kleppel et al. 1998, Guisande et al. 2000), birds (Peoples et al. 1994, Ramsay and Houston 1998, 2003) and mammals (Lochmiller et al. 1995, van Tets and Hulbert 1999).”
- Habitat urbanization and its effects on birds (2015, background): “…known, however, whether a large prey item is superior merely due to the disproportionately larger quantity of nutrients it provides (Schwagmeyer & Mock 2008) or because it represents specific taxa of particular nutritional value (e.g. spiders contain high levels of taurine, Ramsay & Houston 2003).”
- Carotenoid diet and nestling provisioning in urban and rural great tits Parus major (2007, background): “Moreover, not only quantity is important for nestling survival also quality of the diet (Goss-Custard 1977, Krebs and Avery 1985, Ramsay and Houston 2003, Brommer 2004).”
