- Linking abundances of the dung fungus Sporormiella to the density of bison: implications for assessing grazing by megaherbivores in palaeorecords (2013, background): “Sporormiella abundances in sediments often increase in association with the historic introduction of cattle, horses and other domesticated herbivores (Robinson, Burney & Burney 2005; Davis & Shafer 2006).”
- A test of Sporormiella representation as a predictor of megaherbivore presence and abundance (2009, methodology): “However, our data support the observations of Blackford and Innes (2006) and Davis and Shafer (2006) that the signal is strongly local.”
- The Ecological implications of a Yakutian mammoth's last meal (2008, background): “These Ascomycetes develop after at least one week of exposure to the air (Krug et al., 2004).”
- Late Quaternary megafaunal extinctions on the continents: a short review (2015, background): “Sporormiella Additional evidence is provided by studies of the changing abundance of a dung fungus Sporormiella in lake sediments (Davis and Shafer, 2005; Gill et al., 2009; Gill, 2014).”
- Quantification of population sizes of large herbivores and their long‐term functional role in ecosystems using dung fungal spores (2016, background): “…to complete their life cycle, the presence of these spores in sediments when recovered during palaeoecological investigations are interpreted as a compelling evidence for the presence of large herbivores (van Geel et al. 2003; Davis & Shafer 2006; Baker, Bhagwat&Willis 2013; Johnson et al. 2015).”
