- Assortative mating by multiple ornaments in northern cardinals (Cardinalis cardinalis) (2003, background): “This population of cardinals experiences high levels of nest predation (Filliater et al., 1994), which may confound any association between pair reproductive success and ornamentation (as in Thusius et al., 2001 ).”
- Achromatic plumage reflectance predicts reproductive success in male black-capped chickadees (2005, background): “Achromatic plumage (white, gray, and black) has been well studied with respect to patch size (e.g., Järvi and Bakken, 1984; Møller, 1987; Pärt and Qvarnström, 1997; Thusius et al., 2001), particularly in the context of status signaling (reviewed in Senar, 1999).”

(2001) and Peterson et al. (2001) and for house wrens in Poirier et al. (2004).”
