• The versatility of graded acoustic measures in classification of predation threats by the tufted titmouse Baeolophus bicolor: exploring a mixed framework for threat communication (2010, background): “Tufted titmice are ‘nuclear’ species around which mixedspecies foraging flocks form during the winter months in North America (Greenberg 2000, Farley et al. 2008).”
• Predators and the breeding bird: behavioral and reproductive flexibility under the risk of predation (2009, background): “(a ) Heterospecific flocking Heterospecific flocking is prominent during the nonbreeding season (Morse, 1970, 1977; Caro, 2005), and tropical mixed-species flocks occur during the breeding season, although in a diminished form (Greenberg, 2000; Tubelis, 2007).”
• Coordination of Group Movements in Wild Verreaux's Sifakas (Propithecus Verreauxi) (2004, unknown): “Grumbling emitted in the context Sitting can functionally be compared to vocalisations that were termed close calls or contact calls in several previous studies of other taxa (birds: Black, 1988; Greenberg, 2000; whales: Sayigh et al., 1990; carnivores: East & Hofer, 1991; primates: de Waal, 1988; H”
• Response to conspecific and heterospecific alarm calls in mixed-species bird flocks of a Sri Lankan rainforest (2008, background): “2003) and especially in birds (Morse 1977; Greenberg 2000).”
• Antipredator calls of tufted titmice and interspecific transfer of encoded threat information (2012, background): “In Scandinavia and North America, plots with enhanced densities of parids attract higher settling densities of migrant breeding birds (Thomson et al. 2003; Forsman et al. 2009).”
• Why do birds participate in mixed-species foraging flocks? A large-scale synthesis (2009, methodology): “There is, however, evidence that aggression is more common within than between species (Morse 1970; Greenberg 2000).”
