- Patch exploitation strategies of parasitic wasps under intraspecific competition (2005, background): “In fact, as pointed out by Giraldeau and Caraco (2000) and van Alphen et al. (2003), theoretical models on group foraging strategies are still underdeveloped, and empirical data are lacking not only on parasitoids searching for hosts but also on predators searching for prey or herbivores searching…”
- Optimal patch time allocation for time-limited foragers (2006, methodology): “For the effect of each host rejection, the decremental mechanism is likely related to the fact that such an event informs the female about the decreasing value of the patch, and it should thus be also adaptive for the female to increase its patch-leaving tendency (van Alphen et al. 2003).”
- Time allocation strategies in insect parasitoids: from ultimate predictions to proximate behavioral mechanisms (2006, methodology): “This model also does not enable females to use other important information, such as the presence and number of competitors simultaneously depleting the patch (van Alphen et al. 2003; Wajnberg et al. 2004).”
- Patch leaving in humans: can a generalist adapt its rules to dispersal of items across patches? (2008, background): “Numerous studies have tested how well animals approximate these optimal policies (Nonacs 2001), mostly in ovipositing insect parasitoids (van Alphen et al. 2003; Wajnberg 2006) but also in fish, birds and mammals sociation for the Study of Animal Behaviour.”
