• Mate competition, testosterone and intersexual relationships in bonobos, Pan paniscus (2012, methodology): “Using behavioural standards from related studies on chimpanzees (Muller & Wrangham 2004; Stumpf & Boesch 2005), we considered the nine males to be socially mature.”
• Determinants of male reproductive success in wild long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis)—male monopolisation, female mate choice or post-copulatory mechanisms? (2006, background): “can vary significantly according to the stage of the female cycle (Deschner et al. 2004; Stumpf and Boesch 2005).”
• The efficacy of female choice in chimpanzees of the Taï Forest, Côte d’Ivoire (2006, background): “However, females preferred both dominant and particular low-ranked males (see Stumpf and Boesch 2005; Fig.”
• Sexual coercion by male chimpanzees shows that female choice may be more apparent than real (2011, methodology): “95 In more detailed studies, Stumpf and Boesch (2005, 2006) examined mating 96 patterns in two communities of wild chimpanzees living in Taï National Park (Ivory 97 Coast), quantifying female “preferences” by establishing rates of proceptivity (female-98 initiated sexual behaviour) and resistance…”
• Conflict and Cooperation in Wild Chimpanzees (2005, background): “Similar to Mahale, females at Taı̈ showed a general preference during the POP formales that were high‐ranking or soon became high ranking (Stumpf and Boesch, 2005).”
• Kin biased investment in wild chimpanzees (2006, background): “…as they seem to be able to detect the likelihood of conception from the size of female sexual swellings and adapt their mating behaviour to that knowledge (Deschner et al., 2004), and that male mating initiatives reflect female preference for certain males (Stumpf & Boesch, 2005, in prep.).”
