The evolution of hippocampus volume and brain size in relation to food hoarding in birds (2004, background): “…body mass were also taken from those sources itself (Crile & Quiring 1940; Armstrong & Bergeron 1985; Mlı́kovsky 1990; Garamszegi et al. 2002; Iwaniuk & Nelson 2003). a1, Sherry et al. (1993); 2, Brodin & Lundborg (2003); 3, DeVoogd et al. (1993); 4, Abbott et al. (1999); 5, Smulders et…”
Problem-solving performance is correlated with reproductive success in a wild bird population (2013, background): “…level is associated with a bigger brain (Timmermans et al. 2000), increased vulnerability during the prolonged period of development associated with larger brains (Iwaniuk & Nelson 2003) and increased exposure to a wider variety of parasites and microbes (Garamszegi et al. 2007; Vas et al. 2011).”
Behavioural plasticity: an interaction between evolution and experience (2010, background): “There is, though, some comparative evidence for the costs of brain tissue trading off with other fitness-related traits (brain size and muscle mass: Isler and van Schaik 2006; brain size and life history traits: Iwaniuk and Nelson 2003; Barrickman et al. 2008).”
Technical innovations drive the relationship between innovativeness and residual brain size in birds (2009, unknown): “Studies of brain size have thus focused on both species-level (Iwaniuk & Nelson 2003; Iwaniuk & Arnold 2004) and family level (Owens 2002; Morand-Ferron et al. 2007; Sol & Price 2008) comparisons, depending on the question at hand.”
Reproductive tradeoffs of learning in a butterfly (2011, background): “…of reproduction as measured by gestation length, incubation period, weaning time, postnatal dependence on parents, and/or age at first reproduction (Sacher and Staffeld 1974; Mace and Eisenberg 1982; Pagel and Harvey 1988; Iwaniuk and Nelson 2003; Lefebvre et al. 2006; Barrickman et al. 2008).”
How Our Ancestors Broke through the Gray Ceiling (2012, background): “Early studies had found no evidence for it in bats or birds (Isler and van Schaik 2006a; Jones and MacLarnon 2004).”
Populations of migratory bird species that did not show a phenological response to climate change are declining (2008, background): “(49), Iwaniuk and Nelson (50), and Mlíkovsky (51).”
Living in the city: can anyone become an ‘urban exploiter'? (2007, methodology): “Data regarding species’ traits were taken from the literature (Cramp & Simmons, 1980; Hollom et al., 1988; Paz & Eshbol, 1990; Shirihai, 1996; Del Hoyo et al., 1999; Iwaniuk & Nelson, 2003; E. Banker, unpublished data) (Table 1).”
