The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Self‐medication in insects: current evidence and future perspectives (2014, background): “It is perhaps unsurprising that self-medication occurs in caterpillars such as Grammia, Spodoptera, and Danaus, given the large literature on the use of toxic host plant secondary metabolites for defence in many species of moths and butterflies (Hunter, 2003; Ode, 2006).”
Host plants and butterfly biology. Do host‐plant strategies drive butterfly status? (2004, background): “As butterflies are phytophagous, there is an expectation that contrasting host-plant attributes hold the key to changes in butterfly status because insect life-history traits link to characteristics of their host plants (e.g. Price, 2002; Hunter, 2003).”
Plant-mediated effects in the Brassicaceae on the performance and behaviour of parasitoids (2008, background): “However direct and indirect defences may not act independently from each other and this may impose an evolutionary ‘dilemma’ or ‘conflict’ when a female parasitoid is attracted to a plant that negatively influences the development of her progeny (Dicke 1999b; Havill and Raffa 2000; Hunter 2003).”
