• The ecology and evolution of eusociality in sponge-dwelling shrimp (2002, background): “…to the several clades of classically eusocial Hymenoptera and the termites, these include certain thrips (Crespi 1992, Crespi and Mound 1997), platypodid beetles (Kent and Simpson 1992), soldier aphids (Stern and Foster, 1996), African mole-rats (Bennett and Faulkes, 2000), and snapping shrimps.”
• Subterranean Rodents: News from Underground (2007, background): “In another book published at that time, Bennett and Faulkes (2000) summarized their research and ideas on mainly South African mole-rats, pointing out that the naked mole-rats have hairy cousins which are not less interesting.”
• A REEXAMINATION OF FACTORS INFLUENCING PHILOPATRY IN RODENTS (2003, background): “Although this pattern is not as clear when timing of weaning is compared between social and solitary bathyergids (Bennett and Faulkes 2000; Burda 1990), solitary mole-rats have much faster growth rates (1.22–3.3 g/day) as compared to social mole-rats (0.22– 0.23g/day—Bennett et al. 1991).”
