• Day length, latitude and behavioural (in)flexibility in baboons (Papio cynocephalus ursinus) (2003, background): “Firstly, the proportion of fruit in the diet increases with temperature (Hill and Dunbar 2002) and this relationship thus reflects the benefits of a high quality diet.”
• Fission–fusion social systems as a strategy for coping with ecological constraints: a primate case (2007, unknown): “Previous models of primate socio-ecology have shown that these variables can be important determinants of time budget (Dunbar 1992b, c; Hill and Dunbar 2002; Korstjens et al. 2006; Korstjens and Dunabr 2007; Williamson and Dunbar 1999).”
• Biogeographical variation in the diet of Holarctic martens (genus Martes, Mammalia: Carnivora: Mustelidae): adaptive foraging in generalists (2011, methodology): “Environmental and climatic conditions affect food availability and can have an impact on dietary composition and diversity (Hill & Dunbar, 2002); by regulating primary productivity they consequently influence rates of population dynamics (see Macdonald et al., 2010).”
• A geometric morphometric approach to the study of ecogeographical and clinal variation in vervet monkeys (2007, background): “…moisture (annual averages and monthly standard deviations) and the Shannon rainfall diversity index, a measure of the differences in mean monthly rainfall over a 12-month period, with less seasonal environments represented by higher index values (Hill & Dunbar, 2002; Korstjens & Dunbar, in press).”
• Nutritional composition of the diet of the gorilla (Gorilla beringei): a comparison between two montane habitats (2007, background): “…separated areas, and on spatial and temporal scales within the same area has been documented for many taxa, including primates (Chapman et al. 2002a, b; Hill & Dunbar 2002, Russo et al. 2005), and gorillas specifically (Doran & McNeilage 1998, Ganas et al. 2004, McNeilage 2001, Rogers et al. 2004).”
• Costs and benefits of group living in primates: group size effects on behaviour and demography (2008, background): “Hill & Dunbar 2002 ), given that direct measures of habitat quality were rare.”
• Time as a constraint on group size in spider monkeys (2006, unknown): “components of previous time budget models (Dunbar 1992b,c; Williamson and Dunbar 1999; Hill and Dunbar 2002).”
